That looks like a Aquacomputer full cover block also.
I'd have to concur! :up:Quote:

6.F10 save then boot normal into windows..:up:
Ok you see this for like half a second...

Then this.

I took a picture... since I couldn't manage to read it and scribble it down fast enough.... WTH.
I set everything back to raid in bios... Maybe I'm lost? But it still doesn't show me the drives in the bios.
Well that would pry work.. But my bios isn't seeing any of my drives... only my sata dvd drive. :shrug:Quote:

When you set the Intel ICH10R to RAID Mode the drives are only displayed in the Intel Matrix Storage Manager "firmware" screen during POST.
That's why you cannot see them in the BIOS Menu.
Well I tried it numerous times... still don't see any hard drives...Quote:

Everything looks fine in your system.
As every add-on SATA-RAID / SAS-RAID Controller, the Intel ICH10R "Matrix Storage" SATA-RAID controller has its own BIOS ( firmware ) and its own configuration menu ( Ctrl + I ).
When the ICH10R is in AHCI or RAID mode the BIOS cannot see the drives because the Intel ICH10R BIOS is taking over ( getting enabled ) and that's where you see and manage your drives.
The Marvell SAS-RAID Controller is a DIFFERENT DEVICE and controls the other ports, the TWO RED PORTS on the bottom of the board ( to the right ).
The second screen during the POST process ( after the Intel Matrix Storage Manager screen ) is the BIOS / configuration menu of the Marvell SAS Controller.
It is normal as well, since you have no devices connected to the red SATA/SAS ports to not display any drives in that screen.
What's your problem with your configuration ?
So what your saying is I need to just get into matrix storage manager then?Quote:

I can't see a question here neither a problem.
What are you trying to do and where are you facing a problem ?
Well since I cleared cmos last night I haven't been able to get back into windows... Since it doesn't boot my raid array even when its set on raid and to all boot priority is set to hard drive. Alas, if I need need to do is get into the Ctrl+I, I'll solve this once I get home from work.Quote:

I'd imagine it's something obvious I must be overlooking.
Press Ctrl + I during the POST process and make sure your RAID array is there and in good shape ( no missing or damaged drives indications ).
Also make sure that there's a yes underneath the "Bootable" option in the main page of the Intel Matrix Storage Manager configuration screen.
If everything's looking good in there, save & exit, get into the motherboard's BIOS and go to the boot configuration options and set the Hard disk as the first boot device, and disable all the rest boot device options.
Go into AHCI/RAID Configuration sub-menu ( on the top of the menu ) and make sure your RAID Array is listed [ shows the name you picked up for your RAID Array in the Intel Matrix Storage Manager configuration menu ] and is located at the top of the list.
Save & exit the BIOS.
If it doesn't boot into Windows, shut down the PC, remove any extra drives ( HDDs and optical drives ) that do not belong to your RAID Array and try booting again.

Cigarette lighter? :ROTF:Quote:
