Yes, you can set-up a RAID from within Windows:Quote:

Except I'm botting with a RAID 0 and have 3 HDDs in non-RAID.
Just read the manual, chapter 5 page 30, but with the BIOS 0614 the option of "Serial-ATA BOOTROM" is no longer present, it was with the 0517. And just in case you have it, you have to set it to "ENABLE".
anyone try'd the pb5 deluxe + 0516 bios + kentsfield ??
does it work with the multiplier settings?
I have tried with more voltages, but i have BLACK SCREEN or BLOCK IN BIOS. I will try to overclock from Windows with clockgen.Quote:

About Temperature, what is most affidable....Intel Thermal Analisys or PC PROBE 2? With Intel's software the temp are 5-7° higher than PC PROBE2.
Right, after 16 hours with the setup I have the following problems:
1. Mouse power is still on, so the LED is on all the time, even when off.
2. Dual reboot problem, does it nearly every time, even at stock after I had set to to 400mhz FSB. Even does it when first turning it on!
3. Ai Suite does not want to install, might try a system, install soon after all my overclocking is done :D
Otherwise sitting at 400x7, 1.25V until I get a decent cooler (65C at 3.2 + 1.4V lol!)
CR.
hi,
i am building a c2d system with p5b-d and the system failed to post, black screen, no beep, light on motherboard is on, cpu fan working, video card fan working, case fan working, drd-rom tray is working.
system configuration:
P5B-d
E6300 stock Fan and heat sink
OCZ 2X1GB PC2-6400 Gold XTC 5-5-5-12
Gigabyte 7900GT 256MB video card
WD 320GB SATA2 HDD
Pioneer 111D burner
Ultraview DVB-T card
FSP Zen Fanless PSU 300W
Antec P180 Case
I tried to take out all component except video card and still failed to post, only black screen with no beep from the motherboard.
please help me figure out what i could do wrong here. thanks
Anyone else experiencing a cap @ 500 FSB?
Using bios 0614 here.
Not like i have to have that, but last night i was messing around, comparing 7x & higher FSB to 8x & lower FSB, & i couldn't get past 500.
Basically i could do 495 easy w/
all the voltages one step up from the lowest (vNB, vFSB, vICH, vSB), but even with them maxed, i couldn't get past 500.
(And my RAM is more than capable; it does at least 1100 5-5-5)
Also, i get worried about vSB.
Could too much damage video card/HDDs?
Or am i misunderstanding what vSB does?
is it better than the 0624 bios?Quote:

Specs first:
E6600
Scyche Ninja plus
P5B Deluxe Wifi/AP (0507)
Corsair XMS2 PC6400C5
Antec NeoHE 430W
I have one 120mm fan on the ninja, one 120mm in the back of the case and two 92mm in the front
All fans are ~1300rpm
The problem is my CPU and overclock
First, I had the Dividerproblem, but quickly found out 1:1 was the way to go.
At the moment, I run 333*9 and can easily run 2*32M SPi. I use 1.28v(measured) here, and get an load temp of 57c in coretemp.
If i raise the FSB to 350*9 I cannot get it stable, no matter what vcore I use.
If I use 400*6 i have no problems.
Please help pinpoint the problem here.. I know the CPU can overclock more, but I cant see where the problem is.
try updating your bios ;)Quote:

on the 500fsb issue:
i was running 450x8 fine, but i also wanted to try x7 to see if there would be any performance gain from higher NBCC. i tried 500x7 and it was a no go. i was thinking it may have been a lack of volts on the NBvCore?
how does G.SKILL 2*512MB 6400HZ work on this board?
Thanks.Quote:

It's the OCZ Gold which is not recognised by the BIOS thus not getting the required 2.0V instead of the default 1.8V. Ungrading to the latest BIOS should fix it or you need to manually set the RAM voltage to 2.0 in BIOS. The problem is that you need to get a hold of some DDR2 RAM that will work at 1.8V or can be identified by the old BIOS (look in the manual) just so you can boot into BIOS in the first place.Quote:

my 2gbhz pc2-6400 runs fine at ddr2-1000+ 4-4-4-9 with just 2.1v so i imagine with v mods easy cl4@1100
I'm also interested in this....Quote:

Is it already out??Quote:

any solution to the double boot problem?
I have it like most of us.. i'm wondering if that can cause any problems later on?
Heres the best bios so far.....http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...41&postcount=1
Clockgen...http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...14&postcount=1
Max so far with chipset on water, still testing with win.xp...server probly will be faster...

About the biosupdate tip - Thanks.. Running 3420Mhz at 1.408v now..
Tried 3600Mhz at 1.525(bios setting), but it crashed a little bit after halfways in 2*32M SPi, so unstable :(
Upgraded to 0614.
Will finetune both the CPU, FSB and Ram later, but I'll manage with 3420 now. and then post in the "C2D Overclocking" thread.. But not untill after the weekend.
Again - Thanks.
Here's a couple of new issues to puzzle over:
1) With the 614 BIOS at anything other than AUTO or STANDARD settings at stock speed, the voltage will not drop with speedstep. The multiplier drops, but not the voltage. Some proggies like RightMark say it is dropped, but my temperatures prove otherwise, and Probe shows no drop.
2) I tried to overclock to some sub 400 FSBs today and the BIOS just kept rebooting at 320. I figured I would see if it was a strap issue so I went straight to 400. It didn't post, so I unplugged my PSU. First reboot was not successful, but the second one after I unplugged again gave me 400x8 no problem and I did not get the overclocking error...And now I can overclock again above 320 and have the BIOS boot at 380 or whatever. Very weird.
Usually I can go straight to 400 without a problem too. Just bizarre.
sluzbenik... where are you from?
Today i´ve been busy doing some of the vmods in Raptors board here is the result.
it´s kind of modular so i can turn it on and off easily and also read the measure point
- Vmem
- Vcore
- Vdrop
- VMCH
the other conector is used for ground to any fan conector on the board
tomorow or after it i´ll post the full motherboard layout

Ok, I'm having problems with setting up RAID on the P5B. I want to boot from a single drive and then have RAID 0 pair for data. I have no problem setting up the single (I did not use F6 floppy), system boots fine and everything is working. Now, I'm trying to follow the instruction in the manual and boot into BIOS and set IDE controller to RAID. Once I did this, save and exit. I can use CTRL I to get into the Intel RAID setup menu. I can then select the 2 drive that I want ot set up as a RAID 0 and have it created. I would then save and exit and the system will proceed to reboot. It then reboots everytime it gets to the loading windows screen. If I set the comtroller back to IDE, the system boots fine.
Ok I thought this is because I didn't do the F6 3rd party controller thing so I did a Window XP re-install and this time I did the F6 and have the ICH8/R driver for desktop install, but I'm still having the same problem. My boot drive is on SATA 1 and I have tried the raid pair on 3&4 and 5&6 and it's didn't fix anything. I wonder if a full wipe and install will ork any better? TIA for any suggestions.
