D: drive dissapears

[fred]

On boot up, my D: drive dissappears, and only reapears
when i reinstall driver for my unused Ethernet card. When
i remove my unused ethernet card, I cannot get my D: drive
to reappear. I believe this is a irq sharing problem
maybe? My ethernet card is set to pci 9, and my modem is
set to pci 9, and my usb is pci 9, and my Microsoft acpi-
compliant system is set to isa 9. Not sure what my D: is
set to, because it has momentarily dissapeared again. Any
suggestions?

Drives don't have interrupts, controllers do. Your bios may be
non-compliant. The controller and or cable may be bad or possibly a
termination issue.
