Weird stability issue
System Specs:
Windows XP Pro 2500+ Mobile 512 MB Samsung PC 2700 RAM 120 GB IDE Western Digital HDD asus A7N8x Alright I went to go install my new Linskey gigabit NIC. After I installed it I went to go boot it back up and got beep codes from the mother board and it didn't post. I shut off the PC and disconnected the two IDE cabels. Boot it back up and it posts just fine. After doing that I assume it isn't a mobo problem. I reconnect everything and get the beep codes again. I unplug the secondary IDE and it recognises my HDD but I get an error saying it didn't pass the media test? ![]() ![]()

Does it work again with the NIC removed?
What's your effective FSB frequency?

Update
I installed Knoppix on the machine to test it out. I have an error that says BIOS did not set cable bits correctly, and another error saying that the interrupt was lost. I assume the PnP on the NIC caused some problems with the IRQ numbers? Just a theory... I have yet to try XP.
-- edit -- Tried XP and it just locks up on instillation.
