A little more info... this is getting weirder and weirder.

These problems appeared when I was trying to network and masquerade my Windows
98 machine (gotta have my games and I dont like star office!). As soon as it
appeared that the Win box (Torg) was on the network and load a web page, the
Linux box (Riff) would start its SCSI resets. So I yanked out the SCSI card...
only to have the IDE bus start resetting!!!  I can't find anything like this
problem posted on deja.com, which is my main repository for solving problems.

I mean, I know that the SCSI bus and the network are totally separate, but
since this all started happening at the same time... plus my sound is acting
screwy...

Might just be reinstall time.  I have an ISO of Mandrake 7 to play with...
