I don't use the 350, but I think you will find a host of people that have had issues combining the 350 and 250s in one system. Most of these issues seem to be driver related. I would recommend starting with a fresh install of windows and use the latest drivers available on shspvr (www.shspvr.com) as a start.

I think the issues were related to turning off software decoding.

Well, I have had issues, even with the software decoder enabled and the 21177 drivers. Not sure if newer versions will fix it cause I upgraded from the ones on the cd with the same results. When I take one of the two cards out, the system is rock solid stable. I think it's a sage 1.x thing, which will hopefully be fixed.
Of not, I have a PII 400 which I would be more than happy to get up and running to hold my 250 with a client.
Does anybody have a 350 in their main system and a 250 in a client? Are you seeing any issues?
