MSI K7 Master
Athlon 1.4
40GB ATA/100
ZIP Drive
Plextor 16X CD-RW
Pioneer 16X DVD
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz PCI
Linksys NIC PCI
SIIG Firewire Card PCI

I have flashed the bios, i have disabled com2 and lpt1 to free up irqs, i have installed the pci cards one at a time, 2 at a time, 3 at a time. I havent been able to manually change irqs in win98 or the bios. 90% of the time i try an boot with just the santa cruz installed it halts at a blank prompt just before "verrifing dmi pool data." It will boot with the nic or the firewire by itself but never both together- except once in a blue moon i can get it to boot and recognize all cards at the same time- but it will halt at my next reboot. Please help, is there any information im neglecting to give you? P.S. heat is not the problem- its stable at 35C.

And your power supply is adequate?
nevermind, saw your other thread. PnP should be set to yes for Win98.
