Let me know, if I can provide anything else useful. > BTW, Bart, I suspect James' problem is, that his system is running in > pic mode, while mine is in apic mode. i dont actually think that this is a problem i was reading an artical from a website (cant find address now) which was stating that the promise card's fireware on the PDC20269 was limited by the firmware to 2 cards and the 3rd did not work in other cases. The author had setup various other systems in the same way using other promise hardware but slightly different cards. I have replaced the 3rd promise card with a highpoint card and everything is working fine and has been for the last 36 hours.
