Hmm... That's interesting. Maybe it's the IDE drive(s) I've
tried that it doesn't like.... both are Conner/Seagate 850
meg. I wonder if it could be something in those drives it
doesn't like? Maybe it's the motherboard itself that's
buggy? Or the Micronics implementation of that chipset or
something... *sigh* I may have to settle for a new
motherboard. If I do, though, I think I'm going to get a
dual-slot 1 with "slocket" adapter cards. :-)
