I am hoping to get some answers. Here is my situation: I was running FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE on a box I built. It had the following specs: mobo = Asus A7V-266 proc = 1.4 athalon T-Bird Ram = 2 X 256 DDR video = Voodoo 3 16m sound = sound blaster Hard Drive = Quantum Ultra 160 scsi (9 gig) scsi adapter = Adaptec 2940 I moved the video card sound card hard drive and scsi adapter to the following motherboard : Asus A7A-266 with 1.2 Athalon T-Bird. I used the same PCI slots on the A7A as the mobo the parts came from. Everything was working fine on the A7V. Now when I startx, I get an immediate reboot. Can someone tell me if there is an issue with the Asus A7A mobo and if so is there a workaround? I would have included my XF86Config file but I am confident as it worked in the other box that it is not the problem. Please respond directly as I am not on -hardware mailing list. many thanks Raymond hicks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
