It doesn't match. Windows ME is another machine.

Oh my God! This can't be true. They are scum if this is true.

I'll pull out the interface card in my Windows ME machine and

As a side note: my Linux machine has the networking attached
to the mother board. So I guess the additional card should
be referenced 'eth1'. If this is incorrect, please respond.
