    OK guys, before I head to the rooftop with a rifle, somebody help me please! I got my Engenius card (my first) and decided to put it in my MK6 CF-M34. I got the dual PCI board several months back (the one from the 1.0GHz model, mine is the 933MHz), and installed it before I installed the wifi card. I installed the Engenius program, went in and deleted the card, rebooted and tried to let the install take place. No good at all. First there were several IRQ conflicts during the boot process (PCI on motherboard) and the program would not work. I finally figured that the source of most of the conflicts was the card, so I removed it and the conflicts went away, but I still have the yellow question marks on Ethernet controller and PCI under other devices. Also, neither the Ethernet controller nor the modem show in device manager. I have tried various drivers from the MK3/6/7 models and they give the "this model not supported", so I even tried the manual install using Winrar. Nothing seems to work...Ideas?

    The dual mini pci relay on the MK3 PIII 700mhz was very picky in that you could only use a Cisco MPI350 or A Lucent Orinoco and only in the top slot. Maybe it is a similiar issue in your case. Have you tried an intel B card as that was what the 1ghz came with.
