SCSI Issues W/ MSI

I have an MSI-6341S and am having serious issues with the onboard SCSI. After replacing the PSU and reseating the heat sink because my idle was at 62c, I thought everything was fine.

It seems to be eating terminators now and I am reaching for the baseball bat... it booted fine once and I left it on to make sure the temp problems were solved. I rebooted and the boot drive was existent in the bios for the scsi chip but did not post (I think it said, termination not found...). I tried another terminator and the same thing happened, booted once and then no go. I have tried both terminators on another machine and they seem to be dead. I am using SCA convertors and have tried 3 different ones...all to no avail also.

Any ideas? Should I just RMA the board or am I missing something blatantly obvious to all but me?

Ms-6341S
Fujitsu MAN 3367
U160 cables (came with MB...I have several of these boards..)

Thanks

I don't think that would have any effect on the onboard SCSI controller(btw which SCSI controller is it?).

Do SCA drives need to be terminated?...just curious 'cause my ancient 50pin Seagate and IBM SCSI drives don't have to be if the contoller auto terminates(but they can be jumpered to be).
