I'll keep that in mind to check next time.

Thanks, Harry. I did find AIC7870.ADD (the one you list from the Adaptec
website, I think, same size except a 4/8/99 date) on my Warpup cdrom in the
driver folder. That's much larger than the old one I had, which was the
original Warp 4 version you list above. Seems strange that a re-application
of Warpup fp 15 didn't replace it. I replaced it today, so we'll see if it
makes any difference.
