The aic7xxx WAS following the Promise card's IRQ around! I had no idea one of the PCI slots on my MB would be set to share IRQs with the onboard SCSI. I moved one of the NICs to that slot instead, and aic7xxx seems quite happy to coexist with the intel eepro100. Thanks, you're a life saver. -Darren To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe aic7xxx" in the body of the message
