John,

There are several things you can try.  First off, contact Neal directly.  He 
may have an immediate fix for that system.

Second, update the motherboard drivers, chipset drivers and the BIOS.  Some 
mobos had bad DPC problems until a BIOS update was done.  You may have to 
contact ASUS and tell them about the long duration DPCs.

Turn off disk indexing or Microsoft Search 4.0.

Make sure that the power management settings are set for max performance.

Good luck finding the culprite. 

-Tim

Subject: [Flexradio] Explorer DPC's and Sata IRQ problem.

Using a new install of WinXP (32bit) and having PSDR (v1.18.2) hang 
problems due to long DPC's.
It does this when loading programs or browsing with File Exporer

The motherboard is an Asus M2A74-AM (same as Neil's system). The 
Firewire card has it's own IRQ.

Cannot find the IRQ for the Sata hard drive

Wondering if the SATA somehow is causing the problem.....

Anybody with suggestions?
