That's not generally possible. If it happens to be PnP (and not many
network cards that I know of were), you can use isapnptools and the
pnpdump program to figure more out, but all PCI will tell you is that
there is a bridge, not what's behind it.

It's highly doubtful they left out ISA. Extremely doubtful. To get
your NIC to work, you need to figure out what chipset it uses. Look
for distinguishing features and/or chips on the card and ask us or
Google.
