Thanks Flynn,

  I have narrow it down to be the PCI slot. Because if I was to move the 
TDM400P card to another slot, I will not have any problem. The system that I 
am currently working on is a 5 5-volt  PCI slot motherboard. For some 
reasons, the PCI slot 1 and 2 gives me problem. I have checked the 
interrupts, for slot 1 and slot 2 they have dedicated interrupts that is not 
shared. I even tried to change the interrupts via cmos. Nothings seems to 
work. Perhaps it is something wrong with the motherboard or the slot. The 
strange thing is that, zaptel is able to detect the port on slot 1 and 2. 
Just that I cannot heard any dial tone on the FXS port.

I would like to know is there anyone have any success stories getting 
asterisk up and running on a 5 5-volt PCI slot using system. If possible,  
can share the brand and model of the motherboard.

Chin
