Well I got one of those MiniITX D945GCLF2 Motherboards and did some testing
The SMSC super I/O chip has very fast edges, and triggers a problem I'd 
noticed with one of my plug-in PCI parallel port cards.

(1 foot flat cable)

With my EPP loopback test and the current firmware I got verify errors about 
every 200K EPP operations :-(


With new firmware that has improved EPP timing I got the error rate down to 
about 1 error every 100 million EPP operations


With Rev C hardware and new firmware the test has gotten to ~500 million 
operations without error, (still running) I'll leave it on over night to make 
sure I've really got it licked.

I will probably have to send you a REV C 7I43 (three 220 PF capacitors added 
to EPP ASTROBE/DSTROBE/READ at 26 pin Header to prevent overshoot)
