asterisk users - Aug 2011 - TE410P hardware problems

TE410P card down.

I have three (3) TE410P in one machine running asterisk with SS7.

My problems started last week when one of my cards started switching to E1
every time after reboot.  I set the following in dahdi.conf and that solve
the problem.  

/etc/modprobe.d/
options wct4xxp t1e1override=0x00

Now all 4 ports on that card is down with Red Alarm.  I tried rebooting the
machine and restarting dahdi with no luck.  The other two cards are working
fine.  I put a loop plug the ports and same problem.

Any strange output in dmesg? Best guess is either the card has failed or
it has started to unseat from it's PCI slot. Normally when it starts to
unseat you'll see "Version Synchronization Errors" in dmesg when
trying
to load the card.
