Excellent resource! Thanks for posting this! BTW: Since the PIII's run in slightly older motherboards, it's probably worth pointing out that a number of the Intel chipsets are known to have problems with PCI bus master arbitration when you have more than 2 PCI bus master devices in the box; the one I definitely recognized as being a problem was the NX, but I had also heard there were issues with the FX and the ServerWorks III, as well. Checking "Tom's Hardware" is probably a good idea. I didn't see this mentioned in any of the "Notes"/"Comment" sections. -- Terry _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
