Well I've been having some great fun with the NTDK20FA cards

lost 2 daughter boards in as many weeks.

Warning if you need to patch the firmware on your M3900's try not to load more than 2 patches.

If your try and load all 4 patches (1.2mb I think) the card runs out of space..crashes.. C: vanishes PDT crashes

If your lucky only the pdsl.rec file is currupted.

If your not (this happened to me last night at 8pm) the system will not sysload anymore.

My words at 6pm yesterday..."the system will only be down for a couple of minutes"

My words at 11am this morning "sorry Boss the new card is getting shipped to us from Ireland, system should be up by monday "

The NTDK20 is not a clock card, that would be the NTAK20 so are we talking SSC or CC. Thanks
