I can force a change in the NIC through Device Manager.  However, the last
time I made a change like this I completely hosed my network settings.  That
is why I'm asking if there is a "safe" way to do this.  The card is
completely jumperless and totally plug-n-pray.  I have not checked into
flashes, but will do so.  Any other ideas?
