I for the life of me cannot remember how to Force the Network card in NW5.1 to Full\Half Duplex and\or 10\100Mbit. I am sure someone out here knows, so I am hoping for some help...

Thanks in advance..

If you go into INETCFG, you should be able to select the NIC card and set the settings to:

Speed = 2 100 meg full duplex
Duplex = 1 (Full Duplex)

You should be able to double check this against the vendor documentation.

Is this a 3com Card?

These Cards may need to be set in DOS. Depending on which card it is, I have found that you may need to use the 3com config utility to set the connection properties. If INETCFG works then use that however!
