Thanks for that. The "interrupts" issue is one I was thinking aboput myself.
I notice that one of the cards had the same interrupt allocated
as a "multimedia" card and a serial i/o card.  I removed the multimedia
card, but problem remained.   I'll try to see if I can manually
moved interrupts around in the bios or whatever.
