Which network adaptor should I get?
I was just upgraded to 100mb by VM about half an hour ago. On the speed test it would only reach 76mb, but the engineer said that the problem is most likely my nework card Intel 82562V 10/100 (which is on board), and he suggested I get a new one.

My PC is an old Dell Dimension E520, Pentium D 3.40GHz, 3.39GHz, 3.00GB of Ram, running windows xp at the moment.

I'm going to pop out and buy a new card. Which cards do you all recommend?
