I'm suspecting a BIOS issues based upon this page: http://larve.net/people/hugo/2002/12/evo410 Unfortunately, it will be Monday before I can update the BIOS, as the downloadable update only runs under windows (where t creates a boot update disk, tell me why the need windows for this ?). I have no M$ based machines, and I will have to wait to acces one at work (no not mine, somebody elses).
