I had/have a similar problem and people tell me that it's because I have 4
devices: 3 HDs and a CD.  I daisy-chained my Primary to the CD (they 'live' next
to each other and it seemed easiest to go that way) and I had the other 2 Maxtor
HDs daisy-chained connecting to the mb.  This worked well for a while but...  I
am in DOS Compatibility Mode now.

Ideas and help sincerely welcomed.
