That's interesting. I think this is a bug in the aic7xxx driver, because it is reserving a smaller IO port window than the card uses. And the PCMCIA IO port probe stomps on the unprotected bit. (I bet if you exclude just 0x1400-0x14ff and 0x1800-0x18ff, that will also work; it should also work if you rebuild PCMCIA with "PnP BIOS support" turned on) -- Dave
