I've tried the card in the second and third 16x PCIe slots and used both the storport and scsiport drivers with no change. The problem doesn't occur at all when using the IX38. I also do not have a problem on the T2R when using Server 2003 x64.

Anyone else having similar issues with Vista or anything to try in the BIOS?
I got my Areca running in the bottom slot ....changed the 1x 1x setting to 4x nc setting so it runs at 4x

I am also running vista 64 .... had to get the latest drivers from their website ... unpack them and put them on a disk.

it was a pain in the ass.
