I hope this post ends up in the same thread, if not, this is the problem i'm talking about. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hardware/2006-April/003447.html A dell tech has now updated the motherboard bios, replaced both the disk and the SCSI controller card. The problem still exists and i'm still installing FreeBSD 6.0-REALSE from the same cd as the other machine mentioned in the previous post. The Dell tech has now installed Windows just to show me that the windows driver works and sure enough it does work without any errors logged. I've been moving tons of data without it locking up or reporting any errors yet. My next step is to try NetBSD and after that Linux because Dell uses Linux on their boot cd. I thought i should report this though because it could be a problem with the FreeBSD driver, even if it is a problem in the card that the Windows driver is able to bypass i think i should bring attention to it on the hardware list so that the proper maintainer may have a look at the problem. -- Med vänliga hälsningar Stefan Midjich aka nocturnal [Swehack] http://swehack.se
