How do i differentiate between a pci card and aGPIB/Enet device ?

[ymohamed]

I am trying to use the GPIB/ENET (not 100) device. The problem is that this device requires Serial polling to be on. The SRQ is been raised on our devices but our app never receives notification of it. However when i tur serial polling on everything seem to be working. Now, because our app does the serial polling itself it will not work on a normal pci card. here are my questions :
1) is this a known bug ?
2) why is the autopoll necessary for a enet device ?
3) (important) How can i detect if a board is a enet device so that i can turn auto polling on

p.s.

The GPIB-ENET will not recognize SRQ's however. Thus, you must poll the status byte.

If you want to know what you have installed on your system look in the registry at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\GPIB\0000\DriverDesc.
