Hi,
I have an IC7 motherboard (not G) and I'm having problems getting my new
AP-1680 RAID card to boot. I've 2 x 80GB Maxtor drives in a striped array
and can configure the array in the card's settings menu.
However, when I install XP pro, I get through the initial set up phase and
after a reboot nothing happens. I've searched endlessly for a solution to
this, but alas Google groups has not returned anything to suit my situation,
nor has the Abit forum searches.
I'm running the latest bios on my board (17 I believe) and I've enable PCI
Add-in device, but alas I still can't get the drive to boot to finish XP Pro
set up.
The card is an InnoVision AP-1680
(My PCI bus isn't overclocked either)
(I loaded the diskette driver too in XP set up)
I'm running out of ideas.
Help appreciated,
I'm trying Win2000 now, to see if that makes a difference, but I somehow doubt it.
*edit* I now get "A disk read error occurred Ctrl Alt Del to restart"
I'm considering flashing down to the 16 bios.
