There's a lot of BIOS options for interrupt mapping. Maybe I > should play with them. Does the BIOS have an option for ACPI 2.0 support? We have several Tyan Motherboards (S2882 - K8S, K8SD, K8SD-Pro) that give all kinds of problems when ACPI 2.0 support is enabled. Disabling ACPI 2.0 support, but leaving ACPI 1.x support enabled, lets the system boot and run super-stable, in 32-bit and 64-bit modes, with and without SMP. No SCSI devices on these boards, though. We're using 3Ware Escalade SATA RAID controllers. ---- Freddie Cash fcash@ocis.net
