I was having problems with my 3c509 as well. However, I did the
unthinkable and R'd the FM. I couldn't turn P'n'P off because I don't
have the disk. So I left the card at the default settings (IRQ10 I/O300h)
and set all my other hardware to use settings that didn't conflict.
Admittedly mine is TPO, but I shouldn't think that would make any
difference.

BTW, thanks to all for you help. Things seem to be working for now... :)

Hope this helps.
