Ok, I know the board is fine - its the same as I do... I have a Radeon 7500 (I 
do 2D only anyway) so that shouldn't matter either... That leaves the sata 
drive (although many people have success with it) and the dlink card... 

Honestly - I've no clue :-) But I would try without the dlink card... Just a 
guess but you never know unless you try...
