Well, My Elite sitting right next to me has an AMI 486/66 motherboard in it. I got
it from the folks that coulter was using. You probably had a conflict in the BIOS
someplace. The newer computers have LOTS more options now than in the old 386 days. when I bought my Zeos, they were building the motherboards themselves. is it a ZEOS or Micron motherboard?
