Here is the config: I’m thinking this may be a AMD chipset problem, I’ve always used Intel, this is my first AMD since the 486 days. My fist guess as to the problem was power this was all running off of a 400W ATX PS, I upgraded the power supply to...

small group of files. Here is the config: I’m thinking this may be a AMD chipset problem, I’ve always used Intel, this is my first AMD since the 486 days. My fist guess as to the problem was power this was all running off of a 400W ATX PS, I upgraded...

or something that doesn't support adaptec's scsi interface you may have issues. In the current build, I know that MS supports ich7r (and probably the entire ich chipset) so I had no problems booting directly into Intel's matrix raid interface. If...

and give Software level RAID the thumbs down. Any assistance with my problem would be greatly appreciated. Regards. It sounds like a faulty chipset. Can you still return the motherboard? Or at least get another to try. You should have no problem moving...

limits on how many SATA ports. For example, if your board has 4 SATA ports controlled by the main chipset, plus 2 or 4 more SATA ports controlled by another extra chip, you could have a problem. Putting the boot drive on SATA0 port leaves only 3 more SATA ports...

problems. All 20 of those were VIA chipset boards. What this leaves me with is around 1/5 of my VIA based systems having intermittent drive controller problems that I haven't been able to narrow down to any specific chipset model or board. Most of these...

way point in the boot and say something to the effect of "cannot find cdrom trying to kill init" (i think this is a driver problem). I can however boot to a linux live desktop from Mandriva 2008.1 and PCLOs 2007 but after I install and reboot to the hard drive...
