There is an aic7xxx_old on the modules which you could try to use by typing F1 then expert unless everything you have is on that adapter. In that case, boot off of CD2 and select an alternate install image that uses the older driver. 2.2.19-BADZ5 for example will use the older Adaptec Driver. Adaptec updated drivers and firmware in April of Last Year which made this happen for people with older cards. Civileme
