Ok. I can't check the machine in Wellington, but in the machine here.
Not couting the AGP slot, the NIC is sitting in the third slot in the
back of the box.
I'd have to open it (later today when the office is closed) to comfirm
its sitting in the 'third' PCI slot from the CPU.
The NIC is the only PCI card in this machines. The video card being a
basic AGP one. (This is the other difference with the machine in
Wellington which has an old but expensive PCI video card.)
The problem with moving the card, is that the problem exhibits very
slowly. After the previous problems with the Seagate drive reseting and
the computer finally crashing majorly I replaced the drive and
everything seemed fine.
Only now have I notice the problems.
