However, I don't seem to be able to get that far nowadays, as the machine is being used as NFS-server and thefore there is always "too much" disk-transfers going on and an IDE-system hang happens quite soon after boot. (it seems that my raid-disks get out of sync every time I switch from proprietary driver --> kernel driver and so it might be the raid resync that hangs the system). > and i never had the problems with 8k5a3+, > the drives were actually taken from the 8k5a3+ > when it died (me silly tried to update to XP2700) > > really strange, isn't it > > both boards should be the same, except > 8k5a3+ uses kt333 > 8k9a3+ uses kt400 Yep, but it cannot be strictly via-chipset issue as I have verified that the same problem exists with Epox 4PCA3+ motherboard, which is P4 & Intel 875P based.
