Might look on&nbsp;pricewatch.com&nbsp;for that board... I'll see if I can find 
you a working board that's still in production

I hope everyone can pitch in and help me out on this...



I'm making the move to Haiku, but we still have a little ways to go, and in

the meanwhile, I need to continue selling systems that will run BeOS.  Up

until now I've been able to keep finding modern motherboards that work by

using Promise IDE controller cards with them.  The most recent one that has

worked for us is the Foxconn G31AX-K which is a five-PCI slot board.  I need

a minimum of four PCI slots in order to handle the cards we require for our

system.  The mobo is a 775 style.  The G31 chipset is no longer available,

so that door appears to be closed.



I'm running low on boards and just need to keep going on BeOS long enough to

bridge the gap until we have everything ready for Haiku.  It'd be a shame

not to "make it."  Can you guys work with me, help give me some advice on

what I could try?



Thanks,



Dane
