while i dont use 2.4.3 i do have a P3V4X and had problems with the IDE controller (or the IDE drivers) under 2.2.x so i replaced the controller with a promise ultra ata100 and haven't had any problems since.. doesnt seem like DMA is a safe thing on the P3V4X's chipset. nate -- ::: ICQ: 75132336 http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
