How did you come up with the options line?
Did you type it in or did the install put it there?

Try just removing it and see if it detects automatically.
All of my ne2k's are PCI so maybe they detect automatically whereas
if yours is ISA it may not - but it's easy to try.
If not - then run the card's setup program to check what it
currently is and make sure that matches.

Otherwise ... again run the card's setup program and test it.
