Verify Full Duplex Networking 2000/XP

Does anyone know how you could verify a network card working in full duplex mode besides forcing it in the settings? Network manager in XP only shows link speed.

Thanks.
 
Many network cards have an LED indicator. Even if there isn't an LED just for the duplex setting the color of the connection led is often used.
 
Same for switches. I think Cisco switches show orange for a port that is half duplex and green for full I think, I may be wrong.
 
I think the color just indicates whether or not your running at 10mbps or 100mbps...I don't know how to verify the duplex.
