Hm, you shouldn't rule out a hardware problem.
I use the eepro100 module in some cases instead of the e100, because e100 doesn't work with VPN (can't change MTU size), and I havn't had any problems with the eepro100 driver.
It seems to function correcly under W2k, altough I don't know how to really test it. I led ping run for a while.
The strange thing is that is has worked perfectly well for a few years. What could have been broken in the mean time? And why does the e100 driver crash on a HW failure? Do you know a way to test the HW?
