(not being able to look at my mobo right now) I know I have a PCI RAID controller, a PCI soundcard, AGP vid card, i think the 56k modem is ISA, a PCI ethernet card, ACPI enabled, 2 USB ports enabled. Not sure off the top of my head what is in what slot, do you have any recommendations for how all these devices should be placed, PCI slot-wise? Not sure atm what is sharing with what or if its causing problems. thanks again
