Another thanks Raja for 1005....
I'm seriously at a loss here...
I tried updating the bios to the 1005.
No matter what I do, setting the sata to raid, trying to force boot from my raid 0 drives, it will NOT boot from the raid drives.
Even tho intel chipset say the raid is bootable.
Switching back to the original bios, at least I get my system back.
Every thing with this board is a struggle...
I feel sorry I bought it. Might get the UD7 instead if things keep going as they are now...
Edit:
After anther hour, I got it to work...
Had to backup the working BIOS, load it to the second bios, and only THAN I could update the bios and getting the raid to work and boot.

If I were you, I would go read the UD7 thread before making any decisions. I have never been an Asus fan, and used mainly Gigabyte boards for the past few years. After the unresolved issues and lack of support for Gigbytes p67/z68 boards ( I have several and some issues are still not fixed almost 1 year later) I have no regrets buying this, and not the UD7.
The support for this board has been second to none! Hope you are able to get your problems resolved and give this a chance. I doubt very seriously you would be better off on the UD7, or get near the quality of support
I must confess, this RIVE has been the best mobo I've ever owned. It may be intimidating for the faint of heart, but this board has every possible adjustment parameter. It's been a month and I'm still learning new stuff.
couldn't have said it better myself ocnub:up:
on another note. . .

Why did you flame the poor guy, though? He had a problem, and you insult him? This is getting as bad as OCN now...
(sorry, refering to sprayingmango, and I'm not in the best mood. back horribly swollen, marfan syndrome, slowly dying...having to come to grips about life and death, and more stuff I can't say without causing a massive flame war..)
Well I'm pretty peeved since my stupid CPU-Z still won't validate. Will no doubt need to re-install it all again. However I couldn't install RAID originally (said it couldn't install Windows on it for some stupid reason). Little annoyed since my 4-way array was so quick before... I did try 2x and 2x but no luck.
Anyway, I'm a tad tired from work do... So I may try it again tonight or tomorrow... *yawn* have to get through the last day of work...
Ensure you use the latest IRST drivers from the ASUS download page.

Thanks and merry christmas to you Raja. I'm just doing my best, but I know eventually I'm going to have a VERY long hospital stay. Just not ready to go without a laptop and mobile device yet (hopefully will get one after christmas).
I'm already deeply considering an Asus setup if 8 cores wind up coming out (non xeons...)
Anyway back to topic for now...
Hello, the link for bios 1005 not working for me. Could you please upload it to another server??
hopefully this sticks around for a bit. . .

Am I seeing some 2400 mhz memory speed there? Or did I already go to heaven and get blessed by the memory genie in the sky?
Wow....
2133 is fully stable right?
My rig was prime stable at 4.8ghz@1.4 for hours. First two days of folding system was fine, suddenly it all changed.. Random reboots, blue screens u name it. :shrug:
Yeah I know, I remember from my previous setup that I had to dop all that. However, after I select the driver and load it, it sees the array but then tells me it's not suitable for installing windows 7 onto. So I split it into 2x 2xdrive RAIDs but still no joy. Used the drivers from the website and again, no luck.
SSD's and 4x Crucial M4 128Gb with firmware 9 on them. The setup worked fine on my previous AMD setup so not sure what if anything I'm doing wrong...
Happy Xmas to all RIVE owners !
Hey,
I have been having issues with the R4E too and I had the same issue you had yet I had it with the 0901 Bios.
What I did was Reset Cmos and then reset the entire thing up. What I noticed when it happened was I disabled all the other drives in the list and only allowed for first boot option. I dont know if that was the cause but I was able to boot my raid OCZ Vertex 3 Max IOPS once I reset CMOS and did not disable all the other drives. I just left them as they were and put my raid0 set up as my first boot device. Also, I noticed when they were not booting that even though I would set raid0 and then restart. then set my array as the first boot, Upon restart it was resetting Raid back to AHCI for some reason. So it required another restart to make sure everything was what I set it at to get it to boot. And then it did in fact boot.
I tried to set the Normal OC Profile in the Bios and my system would not boot at all. I even purchased New RipjawZ 2133mhz to make sure it was not ram related. None of the profiles work for me. I do have 3 cards so I dont know if that is the reason or not.
Also, I have owned the UD7 and though I was able to hit 5.5ghz the board had major issues. Like as soon as you reach its maximum overclock it wigs out and starts an A6 error loop and does not come out of it. You dont want a UD7 until they get the Bios updated. Right now None of them change anything. They all did the same for me. AND not to mention they come with one of the Dual Bios already non functional on many of the boards. A buddy of mine has purchased 2 of them, I have owned 2 of them and one Assassin2 board and ALL of them came with one of the dual Bios not working. Im still going to get a UD7 again once they update the Bios and get the bugs out.
