Can you try a different test? Power-on the system with the network cable attached to an idle switch (i.e. keep all network traffic from being forwarded to the NIC during driver initialization). Does the system power up successfully? Repeatedly? The problem I saw=20 was caused by network traffic being handled by the NIC during driver initialization. If you still see the same behavior then this might be a different issue. Dave=
