Hi All, I thought I should add my lspci output as Matt did to see if we can track down this problem. I too do not have a rescue disc. I have pasted my lspci output below: [tony@localhost ~]$ /sbin/lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RS200/RS200M AGP Bridge [IGP 340M] (rev 02) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc PCI Bridge [IGP 340M] 00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi Corporation M5451 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device (rev 02) 00:07.0 ISA bridge: ALi Corporation M1533/M1535 PCI to ISA Bridge [Aladdin IV/V/V+] 00:08.0 Modem: ALi Corporation M5457 AC'97 Modem Controller 00:09.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4303 802.11b Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) 00:0a.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1410 PC card Cardbus Controller (rev 02) 00:0b.0 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.

It seems a bit odd there is only 2 people on this list suffering from this problem ... possibly its become bug-worthy? Thanks again.
