Hey guys, I've been having fun now that my setup is complete... I get withdrawal just being away from it
E6600 lapped (3.6GHz w/ 1.6v)
Scythe Infinity w/ Dual SFF21F fans
Asus P5K Deluxe
Corsair XMS-8500C5D (1.2GHz 5-5-4-12 w/ 2.4v)
EVGA 8800GTS KO ASC3 (655*1045)
Creative X-FI Fatal1ty
X3 WD-2500 RAID-0
Plextor Premium, LG Super-Multi
CoolerMaster Stacker 830 w/ 4*140mm & 3 120mm fans
Antec NEO-550 HE
Dell 2007WFP, Dell 17'
Klipsche Promedia 2.1, Steelsound 3H
Saitek Eclipse, Razer Copperhead & Func F10 pad
My biggest problem setting this up was with the raid.
After trying many custom unattended xp disks and pressing F6 to load drivers I ended up getting the "please insert win xp disk..." ... iastor.sys missing ... even though I had loaded it from disk. So I tried slipstreaming intel ICH9 raid drivers to those custom xp install. It would install fine, but I got BSOD with heavy read/writes from the disks. I worked like it was supposed to with "windows xp pro coprporate integrated july" by ETH0 group. Just the basic xp integraded disk. F6 with a disk created by the intel matrix storage floppy disk creator v# 7.6.0.1011. ETH0 has regular releases and I imagine they will work also.
Two things I'm curious about...
Does this board have trouble running memory above 1216MHz? My sticks show promise of being able to go higher but I read elsewhere that someone was having trouble getting their corsair pc-10000C5DF running above 1214 and he was running his 4-4-4-12 with tonnes of room left.
Second is I'm unable to get the fsb past about 446. I seem to hear from reading along the way that this may be a limitation of my processor? Even if I lower my multi I can't break through this.
Suggestions? reasons? Do you need some more info?
Thanks,
