Steve, can you list the total configuration of this machine... motherboard model etc?  This sounds a lot like what I was thinking of building for home.<div><br></div><div>I also would like to try Erik&#39;s new ISO, but sadly, haven&#39;t had a lot of free time to do anything with it.  (I already downloaded it)</div>

I have had loads of problems trying to build a new machine,<br>
Erik has helpd way beyond the call of duty, and finally I<br>
have a working machine.<br>
<br>
The problems where:<br>
        realteck rtl8169 GigE - erik&#39;s driver works a treat<br>
        An intermitant PSU - RMA&#39;ed to supplier<br>
        SATA - Eriks new sd driver works nicely<br>
        A PATA DVDRW which devata ignores.<br>
<br>
So, all sorted but now I need an IDE (parallel) DVDRW<br>
drive which does work. I was going to just buy a Plexstor<br>
drive as being the reliable name but they seem to be silly money.<br>
<br>
anyone any suggestions?<br>
