In some cases I had at least 3 of certain parts. Oh and then I tried it without the card after clearing the settings on the ASUS, which the other board could not do. On top of that both cards wacked out a workstation here. Not an answer, but a bad experience with the 2940U, but OTOH a 2940 works perfect in a 2.1.7 and a 2940UW in a 2.2.1 server and they both worked for 2.1.5 and up without a hitch. ------------------------------------------- Jeff Mountin - System/Network Administrator jeff@mixcom.net MIX Communications Serving the Internet since 1990
