The bigger issue here for me at least is why this doesn't work with a shared IRQ. I've had, for example, my SMC (PCI) ethernet card and my Adaptec 2940 on the same IRQ and it worked just fine. No problems. What are the symptoms of failure with the shared IRQ this person is having? Are they sure it's because of IRQ sharing that this problem exists, or is it perhaps something else? Jordan
