Grab your Phillips, it's... The Latest from The Screwdriver List! Hi Maheep, If John's suggestions don't help, then it may be that you have an older, buggy, version of the Highpoint RAID Controller BIOS (And possibly of the KT7's BIOS too). I seem to recall that the KT7/RAID boards have a couple of stability problems with large RAID without a BIOS upgrade - something they fixed with the KT7A/RAID. Try downloading the Latest BIOS updates for the board (The BIOS download and utility for the KT7/KT7A boards includes both the mainboard BIOS and the Highpoint RAID controller BIOS), and reflash the BIOS, form a boot disk you are 100% sure is virus free.

The Latest from The Screwdriver List! I am trying to setup a RAID=0 (stripping) configuration on my Abit KT7/RAID system. I was not getting the RAID to setup with each of the two HDDs plugged into separate connectors as masters. A friend of mine told me to change the jumpers to cable select. I did, and the RAID immediately set up just the way it should recognizing both drives as masters on their respective (primary/secondary) connectors. But now, I have another problem. I am trying to load the O/S. The Win ME froze when initializing setup, and that happens when you have a Nvidia graphic card minus the ME required driver. I don't have an OS as yet, so I can't install the latest driver. It's a catch-22. Win 98 also cannot get into setup. And Win 95 keeps trying to initialize, without moving forward. The C: drive cannot be read, and asking it for a "dir" gets the message: Invalid media type reading drive C:. It asks if it should abort, retry, etc. If I try to format the C: drive, it states: Insufficient memory to load system files. Format terminated. Does someone have experience with this kind of problem? I have a 1 Gig Athlon Thunderbird, and 256 MB memory. Enough to tackle a NASA problem. If only I could load up an OS. Please help. Thanks.
