Maybe it depends on the BIOS. I have PnP enabled in BIOS and still no problems with this card. Best bet is then go buy some other cheapie card. Or see if you can flash the BIOS. Boards that were designed as PnP only, were designed for Windows only :( Another Gates legacy. -- Hal Burgiss -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
