Im new to this forum so bear with me. I need people who know alot about raids/arrays. Heres my story. This might sounds a little weird and picky at the same time but let me explain because I would like to know what this means. I reformatted my computer yesterday with windows xp. Everything went fine. I installed all the latest drivers for my evga 780i a1 and so on. Now I had a power outage that day but thankfully i was playing a game and not installing anything so nothing bad happened. But this is the weird thing. After the power came back on and i turned on my computer it started up with the beginning post with memory timings and cpu,etc (the normal way). But after that screen, for like a split second a screen that says...
appears. After this screen appears it goes to the next one which is normal bios screen and then loads OS fine. My question is that im 99% sure i have never seen this message before the power outage so did the power outage do something to my computers bios or is it normal to flash that message? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!! I have the latest bios P08 and only have 1 hard drive and 1 dvd-ram drive all SATA therefore all raids are disabled? I even checked under raids in BIOS and their all disabled. So if I have no raid setup how is it detecting an array? Is their a way to turn this off to if its not suppose to show that. I don't have nvidia mediashield installed on my computer either nor have i ever configured raid by hitting f10 and so on. I know nothing about them so i don't use them.
Any information on this would be greatly appreciated!
I already tried selecting load defaults in the actual bios and i tried reflashing the BIOS. But it still shows up. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Hey, I got this same message when I switched my GTX 275 to an ATI 4870 X2 and I cannot make the ATI card work properly for the life of me. Anyone out there offer any help?
BTW i did reload the defaults for the cmos but did not reset it, I wonder if this could fix the issue.
