From what I can tell 4.00.27 was the latest available on your FTP up until the 23rd of April. I simply didn't check to see if any updates were published in the last week. > At a minimum, our FW folks suggested 4.01.00 should be used to > address any known residual MSI issues at the RISC-side.

I'll reboot with MSI enabled and FW 4.04.00 on Friday, and will let you know how it's going on Monday. I hope you're okay with waiting until then. Regards, -- Tore Anderson
