I hate to take issue (I am not being snide) as I know little about windows. But to
verify your assertions I
did a fresh install of W98 and It still wnat to load PCI to ISA bridge (what ever
that is). So it's deep in the system. Maybe machine.inf whatever THAT is. However
a PCI sniffer reports some PCI-ISA stiff in the BIOS. But I've got a much more serious
failure
which may be the subject of another posting if I can
get the symtoms together. For the record I have a
MSI RS480m2 with AND ath-64 3000+ TBC
