Sorry folks, after some more in-depth testing, whilst this driver 'works' there appear to be some significant issues with it:

I have been experiencing very long load times on web pages and poor download speeds which I attributed to my ISP's newly introduced traffic shaping. This past weekend I tried booting into my Windows 7/64 partition with the exact same hardware and these issues disappeared.

Over the last few days my computer would consistently not shutdown or restart, hanging at a purple screen on log out. This happened very rarely, if ever, in the past and other reports of similar issues usually blame a driver. I tried a couple of boot cycles with this device removed from the system and this issue was gone. I would not normally reboot unless I had to, so it is more chance that I had a requirement to do so over the last few days.

Sorry for not identifying these issues previously
