The NEC adaptor was installed as a replacement when the VIA adaptor got wrecked (Intense over-usage). I don't know why it didn't work properly on my previous PC (The VIA 6202 controller which I had performed equally badly), but it could have been because the mainboard was dying (The PC was a second-hand Pentium III bought in November 2005). I have to state that that board was bought somewhere in year 2000 though (And it supports Windows 98). I have a controller with a NEC D720100AGM chip, and it worked *properly* on 2 Windows 98 PCs (One HP Vectra VL800, and my previous PC) which I had previously worked with. Any idea how it is? I can't find info on the NEC/Renesas site and the chip looks unusual, so not sure how compatibility/performance would be. So far it looks like VT6202 is more common, so I might still go after a NEC.
