Thank you a lot for your answer, which finally points out the origin of all my 15-day problems nearly leading me to jump over the window :) !!! OK for the address conflict. In fact, I had seen that, but since it was working without the SCSI board, I thought it was a normal thing, while curious. What do you mean by this Win-NT / XFree86 comparison ? Do you mean I can change the setting of the video board address through NT ? Brian Ristuccia speaks about a "pcitune" utility. After a tour in the web, I could not find any real reference about that. Where can I find this tool ? is it a DOS, Windows or Linux tool ? And finally, how can I change this f.....g video board address ? Thanks again to all that helped me in these problems.
