This is the bulk version, it does not come with any software nor driver. But most modern OS’s will automatically detect this card and install the correct driver for it. If the OS does not, then do a web search for “Broadcom 5751 driver” and top links should link to the driver for this card.

Works great, no driver download needed,
Got this for a Dell Windows Vista system, after my attempt to install an Intel Gigabit card failed — the new card required Intel’s PROset drivers, but I had to uninstall the existing one first, and the installer refused to let me do it. So I pulled that card and put this one in. Came right up, didn’t need to download separate drivers or anything. Definitely recommend this over that Intel card.

Great network card,
This NIC works great and has a low profile inside my case. I had to replace an onboard NIC that was starting to fail, and this one fit the bill without needing a driver download or anything. WIndows 7 has the drivers for this chipset already.

It works!,
Needed a PCI-Express 1Gigabit Ethernet card. All local resources failed me so I turned to Amazon. I chose this card because it was the cheapest. Plugged it in and my gigabit switch saw it as 1G right off, everything seemed to work fine under Windows 7. No arguments here.
