I've tried every combination of BIOS settings and changed out all assiciated hardware and found the problem: It's the Tyan. I've also had issues with a couple of SCSI RAID cards when I tried using them with the Tyan card. This all would have really upset me if the Athlon MP platform performed better than the Intel platform, but it doesn't. This Dual Athlon MP system actually handles LESS total Asterisk load than a single P4 3.2 GHz, and the P4 has a lot more Motherboard options and cost much less. This is just my experience, I'm sure I am using Asterisk a little differently than you, I don't have 3 Quad T1 cards in any of my machines, but if that's what you're looking for, I'd suggest the PowerPC(Mac) platform. Asterisk installs just fine right on top of Yellow Dog Linux and the bus speed of a Mac mops the floor with most x86 motherboards, meaning more bandwidth for those bus-hungry Digium boards.

However, the problem remains. I can run one or two cards with no problem. But once I enable the third card, the system locks up within a few minutes. I tried getting Athlon MP motherboards other than the Tyan S2466, but no one has any anymore. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
