Nope, nothing helps!

BIOS: I reinstalled the last non-betaversion
Moving the PCI-card didn't help either. One note though: The motherboard
only has one pci-bus, but is equiped with a "PCI Raiser", ie enables two
cards in one slot (only one card is used at the time). I shifted place in the
PCI Raiser, I also removed the raiser and mounted the card directly in the
main bus, but no success.

I've tried to configure the card manually in the BIOS as well as setting it
to PnP.

I'm stuck!!!
