That happened to me, too, when I was still using an SP3G mainboard.

Later I upgraded it with a Gigabyte 586 ATE/P mainboard, and recently with
a Gigabyte 586 HX mainboard; both equipped with an Asus SC-200 PCI
controller (NCR 53c810 based); and with both Gigabyte board / Asus
controller combinations I have never had a problem.
