The problem is you just don't want it to be a hardware problem because you don't accept the possibility that the NT driver wrote around a hardware problem and the FreeBSD driver doesen't. Despite the fact that making up for hardware problems with writearounds in the software drivers is a common thing in the industry. So you won't do the testing to prove that it is or isn't a hardware bug, and thus you can continue pretending to yourself that it must be software, and thus not your responsibility. Tedhelp
