thanks.

I've looked through the probes.  No IRQ sharing I could see.  All 
conflicts were removed during the configuration stage.  I've tried with a 
single SCSI disk to remove ID duplication possibilities.

As for termination, I've tried 4 SCSI drives, each of which I think I've 
terminated properly.  The card is a loaner and worked previously.  So 
unless there's another idea, I'll start suspecting termination.
