 I had this same problem, and the 3c5x9cfg.exe program, along with just
 re-setting up my NIC solved it. Other notes from my problem

 1.	Problem happened at boot, system hung during boot, and rebooted
 2.	Had BSD 4.4 working with same NIC, and no problem at all.. (??)
 3.	Finally managed to upgrade my 4.4 to 5.2.1. yay.
