Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe and ACPI 3.05

Q1:

This all works as long as I use /SMP /APIC /!NOD (The eCS 2.0RC4 installer didn't add the /!NOD). The UpTime utility now works also, and COPY ACPICA$ <filename> produces a usable file.

The on-board nVidia HD Audio works erratically with UniAUD 1.1.4RC2 (not at all with RC3 or RC4): the sound in YouTube videos, for example, is sometimes fine, sometimes "choppy," even when playing the same video.

Q2:

When I ran the PCI.EXE program in order to get information that might help track down the audio problem, the final lines of the output contained:

"ROM PCI IRQ routing table Tests.... ROM IRQ routing table found at F000h:DB90h Table Version 1.0 - OK Table size 288 bytes - OK Table Checksum F9h - OK PCI Interrupt Router: Unknown IRQ's dedicated to PCI : 10,11 Error: table entries 6 and 7 refer to the same Bus=255/Device=0! Error: table entries 6 and 8 refer to the same Bus=255/Device=0! Error: table entries 6 and 9 refer to the same Bus=255/Device=0! Error: table entries 7 and 8 refer to the same Bus=255/Device=0! Error: table entries 7 and 9 refer to the same Bus=255/Device=0! Error: table entries 8 and 9 refer to the same Bus=255/Device=0! The ROM PCI IRQ routing table appears to be faulty!!

IRQ Summary: IRQs 10,11,14,15 are used by PCI devices Shared IRQs: IRQ 10 is shared by 5 PCI Devices IRQ 11 is shared by 3 PCI Devices"

Are these errors serious? If so, what can be done to solve them?

If you using /!NOD, all question about PCI need send to kernels developer. About uniaud works need send to uniaud support

ACPI 3.13 appeared at the betazone today. It seems to work just as well as (but no better than) 3.11 -- 3.12 seems to have been skipped.

My hardware:

Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe (nVidia chipset) with dual-core AMD. ATI X1050 PCIe video (recognized by SNAP as X550). LSILogic PCI-bus U320 SCSI.

I still have to use the /!NOD switch, which I had thought was going to be rendered superfluous soon. On the contrary, the docs. now specify the use of that switch with this combination of motherboard and SCSI card.
