Hi,

With this

-[00]-+-00.0  8086:2578
      +-03.0-[01]----01.0  8086:1075
      +-1c.0-[02]--+-01.0  11ab:5081
      |            +-03.0  9005:00c0
      |            +-03.1  9005:00c0
      |            \-04.0  11ab:5041
      +-1e.0-[03]--+-09.0  1002:4752
      |            \-0a.0  8086:1076
      +-1f.0  8086:25a1
      +-1f.1  8086:25a2
      +-1f.2  8086:25a3
      \-1f.3  8086:25a4

i tried to tune the latency-timer on 02:01.0 02:04.0 and 00:1c.0
individually or both. tried 40, 60, 80. no luck.

so i think it is the driver or card fault. :) thanks anyway.
