Hi,
I just built a new system with a MSI K8N Neo2 motherboard and two WD74GB raptor drives hooked up to the SATA 1 and 2 ports in RAID0.
At bootup, WinXP Pro SP1 shows the removable hardware icon in the lower left tray by the clock. This is the same icon that shows up when you connect USB RAM...

I've also had a terrible time with video crashes with the A8V. I get the Via infinite loop crash "Thread stuck in device driver" any time I try to play a 3D game. It started with my 9800Pro, which I used as an excuse to get a GeForce 6800GT, but it has the same problem. I can run a...

I did swap out the 9800Pro with the Ti4600. The system now appears to be running fine. However, the 9800Pro uses a lot more power (has its own molex connector) so I'm not sure it was just a bad video card.
I guess my question is this - Should I be concerned about the power fluctuations...
My new system has a 2-yr old Enermax 431W PSU (EG465P-VE FCA). ASUS Probe utility reports the following voltages at idle:
12V - 11.491 occasional drops to 11.43 (down to 11.2 if games are run)
5V - 5.08 steady
3.3V - 3.312 steady
Vcore - 1.552 with fluctuations from 1.536 to 1.568...
