Thanks Ben (and everyone else that has replied), I've settled the system down a little by moving my SB Live! card to slot 4 and ensuring through the BIOS that all cards have their own unique IRQ - not easy I can assure you. The Marvel is a good card, unfort there is no card out there that is the best all round - video/3d(opengl)/2d. I think the Marvel would be approaching the best all round if they just sorted out there drivers, something I think most people would agree on.
