Hi, Have your friend try 5.0.19 or 5.0.13. These have worked for me. Obviously, if he is getting the scsi reset, trying harder syndrome, then it is finding his controller. In the 5.0.19 driver, Doug added some time delays for devices that need more time to settle. I think that this was my problem all along. No. I don't think that system's chipset is related. It seems more related to the devices not being given enough time to settle (whether or not it relates to chipset speed). Btw, I am not absolutely positive here. Doug, what are your comments? > > I have a TYAN motherboard with 7895, and 5.0.[13 through 18] work fine > for me.
