Hello to all!
I dont know if im allowed to ask about hardware problems, but none of my searching gave me any result....
Seems like im the only one who has that issue

I have 3 different Ethernet card, every one works great under Windows.
When i perform a clean install of Leo 10.5.2 (rev1 or 2), networking works great out of the box, as long as i dont install videodrivers, than i dont install video drivers.... than i get a Pure white screen right after a grey screen with an apple and Loading circle..... And it hangs Dead....
When i take out the Ethernet card - evrything works great, including video...

So i have video or networking working.
How can i handle that problem?

My specs are:
Amd athlon x2 4000+
Msi K9N Neo(nForce 550, Vitesse networking, doesnt work at all, Realtek HDAudio, works with HDAPatcher)
2xSata drives, 1xIDE Drive(OSX is here)

Ethernet cards:
RTL1839D(works out of the box, doesnt work with video drivers installed(tried 3 different sets of video drivers, including ones from zephiroth's wiki))(works great on my friends PC, who also has OSX installed)
D-Link DFE-520TX(doesnt work, tried ton of drivers, none helped, but i dont get a white screen, system boots OK)
D-Link DGE-528T(getting white screen again)(works great on my friends PC)
Greatest solution would be to get onboard one to get working, but looks like its not really possible now...

PS:I love OSX(since first time saw it) and really apreciate Zephiroths great work!

Have you tried using them in different pci slots it could be an IRQ conflict or something like that
