It is supported by the source as such, it has the PCI id in its list. The problem is it doesn't seem to work right. I have a TX4 too which works perfectly. It seems noone else is using the onboard 20376 so it might not be surprising that bugs haven't been found. MfG Goswin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
