Well, I need at least 3 (if not 4) IDE channels, due to the RAID I'm setting
up on this machine.  So while I happen to have a Promise card, that's going
on to the new mobo.  The old one will probably be used for another purpose
anyway, and I will need to check the second onboard IDE controller to see if
that fried also.  Thanks!
