Adding 4 port HP NC150T NIC into FreeBSD 4.11

Hi,
I have an internal HP DL-140 running FreeBSD 4.11p13. The two internal
NIC's (bge1 & bge2) and a HP NC150T PCI NIC (bge0), are all running fine.
I have just pulled out the 1 port PCI NIC, and installed a HP 4 port NIC.
Interestingly, I found that only the first port on the NIC (BCM5705K -
bge0), is recognised by FreeBSD. Surely, if it recognises one, it would
recognise them all?
Here is the dmesg NIC portion:
<snip>
pcib1: <ServerWorks host to PCI bridge(unknown chipset)> on motherboard
pci1: <PCI bus> on pcib1
bge0: <Broadcom BCM5705K Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x3003> mem
0xfeaf0000-0xfeafffff irq 3 at device 6.0 on pci1
bge0: Ethernet address: 00:11:85:12:ea:a9
miibus0: <MII bus> on bge0
brgphy0: <BCM5705 10/100/1000baseTX PHY> on miibus0
brgphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseTX,
1000baseTX-FDX, auto
pcib2: <Host to PCI bridge> on motherboard
pci2: <PCI bus> on pcib2
bge1: <Broadcom BCM5704C Dual Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x2002> mem
0xfebb0000-0xfebbffff,0xfebc0000-0xfebcffff irq 5 at device 0.0 on pci2
bge1: Ethernet address: 00:12:79:3d:73:de
miibus1: <MII bus> on bge1
brgphy1: <BCM5704 10/100/1000baseTX PHY> on miibus1
brgphy1: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseTX,
1000baseTX-FDX, auto
bge2: <Broadcom BCM5704C Dual Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x2002> mem
0xfebe0000-0xfebeffff,0xfebf0000-0xfebfffff irq 11 at device 0.1 on pci2
bge2: Ethernet address: 00:12:79:3d:73:df
miibus2: <MII bus> on bge2
brgphy2: <BCM5704 10/100/1000baseTX PHY> on miibus2
brgphy2: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseTX,
1000baseTX-FDX, auto

Any idea why it doesn't recognise the other 3 ports of the PCI HP NC150T NIC
Cheers,
