      The nc364t nic has a PCI x16 interface:

      http://h20564.www2.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c00885057

      that is compatible with x4 and x8 slots.

      THe Asrock has both a x1 and a x16 slot - make sure it's in the x16 slot.

      Also - make sure the motherboard is flashed with the latest firmware - I've had issues with cards (not just nics) not getting recognized that was solved by flashing firmware.

      I use these nics a lot, and have very good luck with them.

        It's not working I updated the asrock motherboard to a beta bios that was very hard to find It's bios 1.21.
        I have a 512mb ram installed in the motherboard and a celeron 430 cpu would that cause any issues.
        The card is also working i tried it in my personal desktop which has a 1155 asrock z77 extreme 4 and it worked wonderfully.

          The CPU/RAM shouldn't matter.

          The only other thing I can think of would be checking the Bios settings and try changing some of them.

              Actually it's x4 and compatible with x4, x8, and x16 slots.

                Which version of pfSense do you use ?
                32Bit or 64Bit ?
                Embedded install or Full install ?

                  full install and its pfsense version 2.3.2  32bit.
                  I tried using the pfsense 2.4.0 64bit beta and it still didn't detect the card. I don't think its detecting it at the bios level.

                    Do you have a PCI-E Video card to test the PCI-E x16 slot ?
                    Did you use the serial of vga version of pfSense ?
                    There is a possibility that the PCI-E x16 slot only support VGA cards, there are motherboards where
                    the PCI-E x16 slot only work with VGA-cards and not with network cards.

                      I went out and got a Lenovo thinkcentre m57 and the Nic worked in it. It also has a onboard Intel gigabit Nic also. So I am happy at the moment. I just need a 1gb ram and a USB keyboard to get the system up and running. I will let you guys know when The system is up and running.
                      Thanks everyone for the replies and the help.
