Thanks for the reply!

I went into Control Panel>System>Device Manager>Disk Drives and unchecked DMA. Rebooted the machine and tried to copy three 2 Meg files from the K7 to the K6 and locked up the K7.

I think you are correct about the DMA problem, but I believe it has more to do with the VIA chipset than anything else. It worked flawlessly before I upgraded to this FIC SD-11 MOBO. This board may soon find itself in the alley. It has been a problem ever since I built this system!!!

Also the NIC's are Etherlink III Bus-master PCI Adapters.

If you have any other suggestions I am certainly open. But I believe my best bet is to buy a new MOBO, possible with ALI chipset(Tyan Trinity 762A).
