Try the Advansys cards. As far as I understand the
author gets full cooperation (and the official driver
sources) from the Advansys corporation.

I have an Advansys PCI card and I used it under the
most adverse circumstances without any problems.
The ISA cards probably work just as well, but you'll
have to ask the driver's writer to know for sure...
