I'm not entirely sure what you mean. I've had devices on boith the 8 and 16 bit internal connectors on the card since the first day I brought the machine online back in February. The only change I've made to the setup is that originally, the 4 gig HP C1533 DAT was at the end of the 8-bit chain and now it's in the middle, with the NEC CD-ROM drive at the end (the termination on both set appropriately as far as I could tell from the manuals). From the outset I'd adjusted the 2940UW's built-in termination to match this configuration as specified in the manual. Furthur advice or clarification would be greatly appreciated, as it started giving me the same errors again a short while ago (I called the guy who was sitting at the console and had him bring prozac [the machine] down for 15 minutes rather than letting it panic and crash). Thanks in advance, -Amir
