Anyone has a Intel NIC Pro 100/1000?

mick.fr

I am badly looking for a new NIC to build a new VMWARE ESXi
ESXi has a very limited hardware compatibilility list and I am deseperatly looking for a new NIC since mines are not supported.

Anything really which is supported will do the trick, could be IBM, HP etc...

Anyone knows a shop in Dublin? Elara and Komplett do not sell any supported model.

Cheers in advance

I do not use a server I use a desktop based on Intel DQ965 chipset.
Everything works fine but the network.

Yeah I ordered one last week from eBay.ie, the same card for 10 euro, from a supplier in Limerick.
But it will arrive next week while I needed one for this week-end to build a vmware server and test something for a customer.
