Recently i had a power outage at my place that apparently fried both ethernet ports on my mobo. I bought a Netgear gigabit pci adapter from circuit city(my first mistake) that "works with vista" but apparently isn't "certified"...'cause i've had nothing but problems with this thing. Most of the problems i've solved as much as i can( i can get on the internet now but Vista s3 sleep is sporadic and now i can't connect to my xbox to share media.

So i've decided to dropkick this #@$%& across the room and buy a good nic that is certified to work with Vista. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
