Getting yet another stall, I removed my Sonnet Tango FW/USB PCI card, and left my M-Audio Delta 2496 PCI one, moving it to a lower Slot4. In the past, I had what seemed like conflicts between the M-Audio and Sonnet, on my old mobo, so I'm thinking that might have been a real issue. I might try the Sonnet in a Slot3, "above" the M-Audio later. Often the stall would occur at the point where it was trying to load several different files related to M-Audio. On Restart, I would sometimes get did not loaded properly messages about the same M-Audio files. So, maybe a PCI bridge conflict between multiple purpose PCI cards? M-Audio has MIDI / SPDIF / Stereo In/Out and the Sonnet has USB1.1 and FW400. Without the USB/FW card, the log looks cleaner, and I have not gotten a stall as yet (3 or so Startups/Restarts). Perhaps the suggestion awhile ago of getting something with a USB hub would be an up-to-date solution. Maybe the NewerTech External SATA box with FW/USB ports would be a better solution, once they solve the firmware conflict between Seagate 1.5TB drives and the NewerTech SATA bridge. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
