I have been going crazy. Nickname: Snowtoy
I have a ABIT KT7-RAID board. I pretty sure the board is defected. I can't get any cards to work in the 4 & 6 PCI slot. Iv'e been over the IRQ's and they are free. The only thing it is steered with the USB. I even went into the bios and disabled the USB auto IRQ. They automaticly go to IRQ (4) and leave the 4 & 6 PCI slot with a open IRQ. I had to put everything on the first 3 PCI slots.To make them work. Its not the cards because I switched them all around so I no they can share a PCI slot IRQ for steer. dissabled both serial ports in the bios and even put a usb keyboard & mouse to free up more IRQ's.I even forced the video to use IRQ (5) to leave (12) IRQ for the PCI SLOTS 4 & 6 still doesn't help. Now and then when I load my modem or what other cards on 4, 6 & 5 I get lock ups or it starts to load and then I get a dialog box that says CTAVSTUB with a OK button then it won't let u past it it locks up on you after you push it. in safe mode I notice it list my sound Card about 4 times,wich would already be installed.Then when I shut down pull the card out thats not working not my sound card, the other card. It sometimes starts right up or I have to restore system to a prior state under Windows ME function.
Please help ,is there something I can do or should I get the Motherboard replaced. Thank You Here is my configuation.
