I suggest you return that piece of crap to the vendor that sold it to you and get somthing that works. If thats not an option and you have plenty of time, you can try to experiment with all PCI and memory options in your BIOS, maybe you can find a combination that make it work. Beware of silent datacorruption and that sort of thing though... Good luck! -Søren
