I havenīt exactly had issues but every now and then "somebody" puts in
a 32/33 card into a bus which is shared with motherboard components
effectively killing performance. At this time, if I understand correctly, there
is no instrumentation in the OS to figure out whatīs going on, so physical
inspection is neccessary instead of just making a piece of software beep
to the IT monkey to go and pull the junk out.
