so, I should forget my file orinoco.pda (obtained with flash.exe on working orinoco silver card) and use your programs, right?
the readme.txt within your .zip file seems corrupted, or at least incomplete (list begins with "1)", and ends!).

when I insert the card, XP displays non ascii characters!

I remember I get it from a broken apple airport wifi station, but it worked great in my linux laptop. I forgot what I did to get the card dead :-/
