Not true.... unfortunatley I cannot seem to find the old mails on this. Probably got lost when upgrading my WinBox. But I'm very shure about this, why else would I burn a nice board and get me an expensive new one??? It is still somewhere in my storage.... I had several people look at my kerneldumps. (I even needed to fix a small bug for that in doadump().) Nobody seemed to be able to really explain what was wrong, and everything magically went away when I bought the Tyan board. So please don't tell me I was smoking something illegal. --WjW
