I had a similar problem when I upgraded to my new Athlon system. For some reason a rather old Intel fxp based card was causing time to go backwards when the interface was brought up. Didn't do that in 4.3-R which I was running before I upgraded everything. Never did really resolve it, just plucked the card. The motherboard is a Soyo Dragon Plus with an Athlon 1700+. I'm using the onboard VIA Rhine II, which is perfectly adequte for me. Just something to throw into the pile of odd and assorted problems. Yann E.B.
