Peter, That is good news, at least as far as finding a problem and having a probable solution. What do I need to do from here? Please feel free to contact me off list.
BTW, regarding the EMC 2.3.7 + 7i43... thread, I also have a box with a VIA mini-ITX motherboard (http://www.mini-box.com/Hybrid-C7-1-5G?sc=8&category=99) which I am currently using with an m5i20 board. I can easily reconfigure for the 7i43. Let me know if that is different from what you have used to test and if you would like me to test anything with it. Regards, Eric 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) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
