I have some more information on the problems with dual 2940A v1.30 cards. Even with the BIOS disabled on an empty card, but card termination disabled, the system refuses to boot. I get a spurious interrupt error. If I enable card termination the system is OK. Also, the problem with data over runs happens even with the 2nd card's BIOS disabled. I had previously thought disabling the BIOS corrected the problem. But this morning the data over runs started happening again. Moving all the devices to one card _always_ corrects the problems. So it looks like there might be a problem handling two SCSI cards in one system. Maybe because of the 1.30 BIOS? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, because using one SCSI card in my system is not a viable option for a production quality system. Derek L.
