Sounds like you could have an IRQ conflict in Windows. Check to see if there are any errors reported in windows (control panel/sytem tab). Also, maybe this link will help http://www.bassontop.com/drivetext.htm

Nope... No Windows/IRQ errors... This is definatley a jumper issue... The jumper settings provided on that link don't work, I had already located that post and tried those settings.... Um... I really need help here... <IMG SRC="smilies/mad.gif" border="0">
