Hi Martin! Well, I have my Hammerfall in the last slot of my Asus P3B-F, and it works without problems!!. I always had my AW8 in the 1 slot and had some problems inthe beginning, but after I moved it in the 3 slot, there are no problems anymore! I also remarked that there in an advantage for the AW8 if its IRQ is higher or lower (can't remember) than the SCSI controller IRQ. Perhaps you are right, but I have eliminated my problems in moving the Audio cards the farest away from the AGP Graphics. Cheers, Gilles Gilles, It is not advisable to move it as far from the graphics card (AGP) as possible. The best place for an audio card is indeed PCI slot 2. PCI slot 1 is the one right next to the AGP slot and it shares some resources with it. Therefore you should only put low-data-usage-cards in this slot.
