    Motub, the irq routing is fine as it just updates it to the new one, it's the bus mastering that's causing the probs

      I have had a VIA chipset since the early PC100 releases [TMC T15VG+...with a Mil G200 SG

      The problems with the VIA Busmastering drivers started with version 2.1.40 [I think..maybe 2.1.39]...the version before that [i.e before the whole 4-in-1 package appeared...2.1.36 I think] worked fine....infact installing them improved disk access and general performance...so If you can get hold of those give em a try.

      Has anyone told VIA about these issues?...not that they'd listen tho.

        Thank you, RAB, Jim... turned off DMA on my CD-ROM drives and voila!! CD Audio!!! Woohoo!!!!

        Haven't burned a CD yet, but Easy CD creator is much snappier, I'm sure it will work now!!!

        Thanks a bunch for solving a problem I didn't even think to ask about...!

            I'll let you know as soon as I install it... on my <u>new MAX</u>!!! [with thanks and kisses to Jorden and ALBPM (Paul)...]

            (but I have to assemble my BX box to do that.. not much point in putting it in a K6-2 system...)
