I would much druther find and zero out where it keeps that count but since I have it working, it can be one of those things I do after I make a run of round tuit's I've been pomising folks for yonks. This drive has now been in at least 4 systems, looking for one with enough iron & memory to do this job. I think I've found it, but the board is rated for up to 400 Mhz memory, but 512k 400Mhz DDR PC3200 doesn't work. I have some new 1Gb, 400 Mhz stuff coming by piper cub tomorrow in case what I have is defective. Its currently running fine with only half a gig of 266Ghz DDR in it, so I am working on configuration stuffs ATM.
