the module is somewhere under /lib/modules, depending on your kernel-version. the system knows where to look for dont worry... did you try "modprobe aic7xxx" , just to control if the module is already compiled (usually it is). if not what is the output. when you load modconf there is a section /driver/scsi I think it should be there. but wait, open a terminal su - to root and type: echo "aic7xxx" >> /etc/modules reboot good luck tim
