I have to admit that I appear to have been somewhat hasty blaming the 
Promise EIDE card as the cause of the overruns I have been suffering.

It seems that having the screen saver 'After Dark' active in the 
background was the sole cause of these overruns. I'd never have believed 
that simply turning it off would reduce my overrun count from *lots* to 
*none*
