This particular message is probably because you have nothing connected to your parallel port. Disable your parallel port in your BIOS or connect something to the parallel port, and you should see that go away. However, it can just as safely be ignored; it's not likely to be the cause of your problems. Disabling APIC may help with your system instability and won't cause you any issues on a fileserver. -- Dave Carrigan Seattle, WA, USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.rudedog.org/ | ICQ:161669680 UNIX-Apache-Perl-Linux-Firewalls-LDAP-C-C++-DNS-PalmOS-PostgreSQL-MySQL Dave is currently listening to Cracker - Duty Free (Live, 2003-05-03)
