[Asterisk-Users] TE410P card in an HP-Compaq DL380 G4 server

[Eric Bishop]

I really am at my wits end about this one. Some people report this

going no matter what. I have been told by the Digium distributor in
our country that this card simply "not compatible with some
motherboards". Sounds very weak for such an expemsive card....
