I can't help you with the Initio SCSI card specifically, but I had umpteen
problems with an Adaptec card some time back when I got a new computer. The
problem turned out to be the PCI slot that I was installing the card into.
Have you tried other slots? If not, do so and see if the problems go away. A
SCSI card usually will be a bus master, and needs to have a slot that does
not conflict with other bus master cards such as the video.

I just installed my Christmas presents. ASUS A7V266-E motherboard,Athlon
XP1500+, and 256 MB DDR memory. Everything else is from my old system. The
problem is with my Initio INI-9090U SCSI card. It keeps locking up the
computer for short intervals and the lights on my Yamaha CDRW4260 blink. In
addition to the Yamaha, I also have a SCSI Zip drive by Iomega hooked to the
card. If I take one or the other drives off the card it still is unstable.
If I take the Initio card out, the system is rock solid. I downloaded the
latest BIOS for the SCSI card and flashed it, and I have the latest BIOS for
the motherboard.
