<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Tony,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The problem is with any interface
(eth,wlan&ppp) Unfortunately the eth nic is onboard... and I have tried
shuffling the wireless card around.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Funny thing is though, the machine works great with
the old hard drive in it.... although the M/B is a bit suspect, I remember
having problems with it before.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Looks like its gonna be a rebuild of the system...
shouldn't take too long! (famous last words!!)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Regards</FONT></DIV>

conflict. Shuffling cards may help. Another possibility is a
motherboard or other issue, so you may need to prepare to do a bit of
hardware swapping.</FONT></SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV><BR>
