Gero, you are the third here on the list who has stated timeout problems with an ASUS P2B with onboard 7890 controller (I'll rule out termination problems for time here). In all three cases there are devices attached to the SE-Bus. It seems that these devices occasionally completly lock the bus. Does your problem appear when using the CDROM-devices? I'll suspect the Adaptec BIOS on the ASUS P2B-D/S. What is your version number?
