The same thing happened to me initially. Go into the bios section called "PnP/PCI Configurations" and set "Force Update ESCD" to "Enabled" and reboot. Make sure you don't have any pci card in pci slot #3 (it shares irq with the HP370 controller). Now I have a lot of stuff in my pc and my NIC is in pci slot #5 (sharing with agp (GF3 in my case)) and this is working fine. I have disabled the build in modem and audio and com2. I use Irq's for USB, agp, com1, lpt1, Fasttrak100 controller, D-Link NIC, SB Live, Mouse (ps2)Onboard HP370 controller and both primary and secondary onboard ATA100 controllers and floppy of course. This is all working fine in win98. I only needed to "reset" the ESCD data once and so should you. Hope it works

Sharing IRQs is normal when using ACPI, i assume your using win2000 or XP and its nothing to be worried about

As for the mouse lag its caused by the useless highpoint drivers, if you can get hold of version 1.03 and install them the mouse lag will stop.

Silenced or Unsilenced...that is the question

thanks folks i tried the 1.03 drivers and they solved the event id question but the pointer problem is still present but not as much any more
and i think i found out where the problem comes from
check this out http://www.highpoint-tech.com/370dcl.htm
my brand new ibm 60gxp 40gb is sadly not on that list
i do understand why abit does not show this list together with their promo material
its the shortest compatability list iw ever seen

Thats quite strange that the drivers didnt totally work. I have 2x 60GXP 40GBs and they work perfectly on the highpoint.

what powersupply are you using?
im using 300w q systems

im beginning to suspect these things have a cause on the problem

Hello Denmark,
I too have 1 second delays in the mouse. I actually found 2.0 drivers for the HighPoint chipset, but they did not fix the problem.

Check here, the drivers were not found at Highpoint anywhere on their site, Take a look and decide for yourself. I am running them and they have not helped anything in my case, but they have not hurt either.

Direct Link v2.0.1019 http://www.warp2search.net/download.php?op=getit&lid=90

XP-eriance page (Sunday Oct 20th Quote on Right hand side of page) http://www.xp-erience.org/

This problem with mouse lag, does it happen all the time or just after 15minutes of the computer sitting, i.e. are you hard drives spinning down in energy star mode?
