Tracerbullet.... Have your tried throwing in a PCI video card and seeing how controller comes up. I have noticed some issues between the Promise and certain Nvidia cards. Below are some earlier observations (even though you're already using the v16 Overclockers Bios). Try a cheap PCI video...

Hi, Had the same experience of the "frozen system" when trying to flash the MSI K7T Turbo bios. The solution was to go back into bios setup and reset the bios to either "safe settings" or "optimal setting" Save and exit then restart and do the flash. This worked...

Hi Guys, Just update to the issue of the Promise RAID controller not always displaying its BIOS screen at bootup of the MSI K7T Turbo when used with certain Nvidia AGP cards (Leadtek TNT2 Ultra, Hercules Geforce 256 DDR). In MSI Bios version 2.4 If user chooses "Load Optimal...

Cool.... It took me three boots today to get machine up and 1020 Mhz after bleeding the PC and powering off the power strip, but I finally got it going. It is unfortunate that I expected 133 to be a breeze on one of the KT133a boards and it has definitely turned out to be a hassle. Oh well...

Did you remove the jumper (JP17?) That sets the Bios range from 133 to higher. Otherwise the jumper limits your bios to 132 and below. Thx, Jon

Hi, This method seems to work for me on my K7t Turbo Raid with a Duron at 133 fsb.....it refers to info from another posting I have running in this same forum. Ok here is the latest attempt at a solution. I had been running back at the 100 FSB speed after my failures to get back to 133fsb...

Hi, Originally, my Promise Bios came up with a PCI video card in it so I knew it was some sort of wierd AGP resource "stomp". The Overclockers B16 bios stopped that from being a problem, although as I mentioned the "enabling of USB Mouse legacy support" in bios will also...

Hi....Im Back !! Ok here is the latest attempt at a solution. I had been running back at the 100 FSB speed after my failures to get back to 133fsb mentioned above. PC had been running for about 3-4 hours....not sure if PC being warmed up had anything to do with what follows.... I decided to...

I hate having to recant my first posting....but After running my Duron 600 successfully at 7.5 x 136 last night and benching it and rebooting, etc. I awoke this morning to a boot with no video sync. I tried every action mentioned in my first post including the "bleeding of power&quot...

1. The 2.4 bios does NOT initialize the Promise Raid controller bios if you have some brands of TNT2 (Leadtek Winfast2 Ultra) or the Geforce 256 (Hercules 256 DDR-DVI )cards..maybe others You don't even see the Promise screen at all. Solution: flash to the latest beta (b16 I think) and...

Hi....Im Back !! Ok here is the latest attempt at a solution regarding the 133 bus stuff. I had been running back at the 100 FSB speed after my failures to get back to 133fsb mentioned above. PC had been running for about 3-4 hours....not sure if PC being warmed up had anything to do with what...

Hi Guys, Here is what I discovered and sent to MSI Tech Support I have a resolution for my case for you. This concerns a dangerous issue with the currently shipping BIOS v2.4 on the MSI K7T Turbo RAID motherboard. This again is the issue of the K7T Turbo RAID motherboard not displaying the...

Hi Guys, More fun discoveries with my MSI K7T Turbo RAID board. 1. If you turn on USB Mouse legacy support in the BIOS it will break the Promise Raid controller bios from even showing up....even with the latest B16 Beta bios. 2. If I try and use Fuzzy Logic 3 or 2 on the K7T Turbo Raid...
