Well, for what it's worth, I have a P2B-DS running dual Pentium III 500's
(which is as high as my board can deal with as I have the "older" revision
without support for the coppermine core) and two LVD U2 Quantum Viking II
drives, a CD-RW, CD-ROM, and Seagate TapeStor 8000 drive all on the onboard
controller. Never had a lick of trouble with it.

Maybe your RAM is flakey? have you tried testing it or swapping a "known good"
DIMM in? I don't know if those drives might be to blame....
