I nearly always do network installs so that may be a contributing factor in some cases: The last 5 systems I have tried are: ATI IGP320M/ALi M1535? 8139 Oct 2002 (Compaq Presario 900Z laptop) ... ServerWorks??? e1000 Feb 2003 (Dell Server) Via KT400 rhine Mar 2003 (Abit KD7-RAID motherboard) Intel i865G e1000 Jul 2003 (Shuttle SB61G2 XPC) Intel i875P e1000 Jul 2003 (Soyo SY-P4I875P motherboard) ... Via K8T800 rhine Feb 2004 (eMachines M6807 laptop) To a certain extent the onboard e1000 nics caused problems (iirc), but even trying addin cards didn't help for the i865/i875. I can't remember what other systems I installed on besides those... Chris
