I thought that might be the case. I think I've finally learned my
lesson about Realtek NICs anyway, I ordered a PCI Intel NIC earlier
today so I'll see how that goes.
Thanks very much for your help everyone. :)

I've just found and installed that Realtek PCI card I was talking
about - it's an r8169 chipset card and so far I've not been able to
crash it but as I feared, throughput is much lower, varying between
about 580 and 650 Mbps although I'm not sure whether that's due to the
PCI bus or the card itself

I posted this earlier but it's not appeared on the list for some reason:
Sorry about the delay I didn't have a chance to try anything yesterday.
Anyway I've just tried a direct connection, updating BIOS, compiling and
installing the latest drivers and it's still the same, if not worse - it
seems I

Hint: a standard PCI 32bit/33MHz PCI bus can transfer 132MB/s, which is
slightly greater than t

have you tried getting the realtek driver and compiling it, on some of
my earlier boards, the nic was loaded by an in line kern
Thanks for replying.
To answer your questions - I couldn't find anything unusual in the
logs, the first message around the time of the crash was the shutdown
message when I pressed the power button.
I have a PCI realtek card I could try with, I think it's a different
chipset so I'll try with that,
