is there such a thing as solder glue...LOL:D

when you first install an OS on a raid array, it is always best to move your CDROM to the top of the order for booting priority...if you leave the hard drive as the top choice, the bios might not fall back to 2nd priority and therefore, you get the disk boot failure...ALSO...make sure your keyboard is set to "bios" during the install.
I made sure both of those were both changed in the BIOS. Still no go. But one thing is weird. During boot it says, "Detect drives. No of any drives found." Yet the raid screen shows the volume and the drives that make it up. :confused:
I can't sign up on the Abit forum because of an unknown wait period. Why do they need to have a wait period?:rolleyes:
It sounds like you have the wrong CD ROM selected. What kind of CD ROM do you have? Is it on the JMicron controller? Scroll down the list and see if your exact CD drive is near the bottom of the list.
Once you create a RAID array the hard drives used in the array will not show up in the SATA 1-6 list. They show up in the Intel RAID Option ROM.
I have an LG SATA DVD/CD drive. Would that mean that it is on the Intel because it is a SATA drive? (How do I determine what controller it is on) The raid is on the Intel controller for sure.
The hard drives don't show up now. It shows 1-4 sata ports show empty in the BIOS. (I think that is what you mean)
Hi,
I have tested my mosfet rad with a B3 Q6600
3200 mhz with 1,48v in bios give 1.42v at idle and 1.37v in charge ( full load , occt 30 minute) need the vdroop mod.
the Q6600 hit 81°c and stablised ~75°c when the mosfet hit 81°c too for ~78°c stabilised.
I don't realy know if it's a good result but I found it a little bit hot , I will try again when I will received my Q6600 G0.
Hmm..
Any1 having issues setting volts above 1.64 in BIOS?
It resets back to my previous setting for me...
Is something wrong here? Is this the way the Intel Matrix raid system works?

It is the long test.
It is from a raid 0 volume and it only had Google in the background.
I have the latest Intel chipset driver and the latest Intel Matrix Storage Manager.
Strip size is set to 64kb.
2x 7200.10 Seagate's 320gb
Jumpers are in the correct position.
That does not look right for those HDD's
That is what I thought. I see people with similar setups get around 95-130 average read with a 64kb strip. :( (same controller and drives)
Here is it with HD Tune.

Here are the drives seperated.

Hi guys! :)
I have an important question regarding this board. How does the "CPU GTLREF 0&2" work? Should i increase it? How much?
I am asking this beacause with the Q6600 G0 the vdroop is causing me some trouble, so i was hopping that this setting could help a little a stabilize.
Please respond!
Regards :D
I did remove the jumpers, and I did select the strip (raid 0) mode in the "ctrl I" setup phase. I know this might not be a Abit problem, so I am sorry.
It just seems like they are capped some how. (I am using SATA II cables as well):(
Seatools reports normal.
Edit: How do I make sure that they are running at SATA 2 speeds?
something is wrong; just don't know right now...
i'll be back with a pic showing two 7200.10 seagate drives on the intel controller in raid 0...
you know what!...just thought of it...you are doing that test from vista..Right?
Here's my results with a pair of Raptor X

It looks to me you need to adjust both of them, 0&2 and 1&3 are processor cores.
CPU GTLREF 0&2
CPU GTLREF 1&3
And they might need to go down, or they might need to go up.

you need to go back to win xp to make sure your configuration is working properly.
