Well we are wrapping up the end of Forum wars now, so give it a day or two and he will probably show up.
Yes I've been super Busy Fritz, sorry man!
For the RAID issue you can try to make a new BIOS for your card and see if that helps.
Download your original BIOS from HPT site, then try this with the downloaded tools included in the BIOS update, this helped me use RR 640 card with Intel BIOS enabled (Without this changed it failed to work)
There is a utility for programming HighPoint BIOS parameters for resolve compatibility
With Firmware upgrade ( run load.exe /C ) for the RAID Card :
And then test the option : Disable Reallocate EBDA in the HPT BIOS
Make two BIOS, one with that enabled and one with it disabled. Then test the disabled one first and see if it works, if not flash back the original or the one with it enabled.
If it doesn't work then you are probably out of luck unless you can get Gigabyte or Highpoint to help you directly with a BIOS.
Do you have a link? the supplied just shows the standard BIOSQuote:

I tried your recommendations step by step but it didn't change anything.:shakes:
Do you think it has something to do with the BIOS of the UD-7 ?
Anytime man, sorry I've been out so much lately but I've been swamped!
Sorry to hear that didn't work. So you're sure you made the card BIOS right, and then flashed the new BIOS into the card with the option disabled?
If so, then yes it probably has to do with the UD7 BIOS, sometimes this is just something you can't get around, other times it can be fixed with a board BIOS change.
I don't have the card to do anything myself, I only have the HPT 640, you'll need to see if Gigabyte has that card to test with. If they don't have the card they probably wont be able to do anything to fix it :(
Have you tried with the latest 2MB sized BIOSes yet? If not try with that, just in case BIOS size is the issue.
Anyone know if they came out with a bios for the UD7 rev.2 that allows slow mode to work properly with a Gulftown or Westmere?
Thanks,

Looks like the F8k got pulled, not even the f8g is showing, back down to the F7.
Yeah man,
the F8k was pretty crappie with a hell lot of bugs too:down:. The BIOS programmers should do their homework before they throw stuff like that on the market, don't they ?
agreed , remember flashing an asus bard years ago and it bricked it, turned out there was a newer bios updater out, would be helpfull to no beforehand.
So what's the best bios for the ud7 ? is f7 better than the f8g ? I bought a ud7 that had the f8g installed... but i don't have a way of knowing if this is better than the actual, official f7.
F8g imop , had F7 for a while and F8g is very stable due to no Double boots were Mit resets but i do have the Power saving options off in bios,Quote:

Check out tweaktown,Should have all versions of the UD7..
Yo guys!

Did anyone give it a try ?
It just for the 3 TB support.Quote:

f8m run well for me:

I flash with @BIOS:)
You mean 2,048 kb 2mb file???? yes you have to use flashspi or @bios to flash.Quote:

Sorry, I meant a 2,048 kb file. (In Germany we use a "." instaed of a ";" like you guys in the us do. That's why I made this mistake).Quote:

yes that is what flashspi is for.. go ahead.
Nop, it says wrong file size. I had to flash it with @BIOS.
did you try the latest version of flashspi? I have never used it... just going by what Stasio and GB say on their web page.
