I had the exact same problems with a Gateway 2000 P5-60.
I exchanged the 2940 with a 1540CP (Adaptec) and the problems continued.

Finally, I intalled an ISA card from Future Domain (1600, 3 yrs old)
and everything worked fine.

You know what I think of Adaptec now, don't you?

And this was for a Department backup (about 10 NT clients).

The answer: Return the sucker, and get anything but Adaptec.
