 But you don't have any devices on ahc1, correct?  Can you tell me what
 settings you have in your MB BIOS in regards to the on-board controller?
 For my ASUS P2B/S (which has a single channel aic7890), the MB controls
 the individual terminators and the software termination detection I
 perform in the driver has no effect.  The ASUS BIOS is smart enough to
 not enable auto-term and just tell me what to use, but perhaps your
 MB is not so smart.  Attempting to read the auto-term status when there
 is no auto-term support will result in random bits and thus random
 settings of the termination.
