Hmm, I was dreading the problem could be here:

AOpen AX3S Pentium III Celeron Socket 370 133MHz 4x AGP ATX Motherboard.

Thats what it sais on the box anyway.

Yeah I do need the scsi because my only hard drive is plugged into it ;=)
I have no idea why nothing is mapped to 3, 5, or 7. I don't think any 
IRQs are blocked or not enabled, but I've never done any fiddling with 
IRQs before so I could be missing something. I don't remember my bios 
offering me the ability to change anything here... I'll have another 
look next time I boot though.

Thanks,
 Jordan.
