    Norton Ghost on Raid Drives

    Redbeard, I purchased the system wih the Raid installed and did clean installs of all my software. I would now like to make emergency restore images for backup. Would you trust restoring an Acronis image made of Raid drives? Thanks for the advice, Karl

    Sorry if this is a dumb question but I just got a new PC with dual 250 GB raid drives. Is there any way that one can use Norton Ghost to restore these raid drives? Thanks, Karl

    Selling PC - Wipe HD or Destroy

    I am selling a PC and wondered if it is safe to include a HD after nuking it? I have heard that one can never really destroy all the confidential information. I was considering running Symantec's Wipe Info, in DOD mode, and then performing a low level format. One would think that would kill...

    *** Official ABIT IC7/G (875P) Thread ***

    I just got a Prescott 3.2 GHz Boxed CPU for my IC7-G and it won't post. My old 3.06 works fine. I shorted the BIOS to clear it but that didn't work either. Does anyone have any thoughts on why it won't work at all. Thanks, Karl

    Unreadable DVDrw

    I have a DVD rw that I created using InCD and it has become unreadable. Does anyone have any ideas on how I might be able to get the data off that media? InCD gets a big red "X" when trying to access the DVD. Thanks in advance! Karl :disgust:

    I have my Windows XP Pro system on a WD 120JB drive and have now gotten two Raptor 36 gug drives that I have configured as a RAID drive. Is there any way to copy/migrate the 120JB to the Raptor RAID? I have tried using Drive Image but I keep getting an error message that the destination drive is...

    *** Official ABIT IC7/G (875P) Thread ***

    Can anyone tell me how do I enable the RAID option on my two new Raptors? I have the the OnChip Serial ATA BIOS set to Raid/Enhanced but when I boot up the second screen after the boot screen it shows the Raid drives enabled as none and then in the section below that are my two Raptor drives. I...

    Raptor Setup Question

    My system is currently configured as two EIDE drives and the image of the master is saved to the slave. I will be installing the two Raptors and hardware configuring them as RAID drives on my I7C-G. I was hoping to then be able to restore the image of the master to this RAID drive and then, if...

    Raptor Setup Question

    I am thinking about getting a pair of Raptor drives and installing them in a RAID configuration. My current system has a pair of WD 120 Caviar 7200 drives and I have a Drive Image 7 image of my main drive stored on the other drive. Is there any way I can restore this image to the Raptor RAID...

    *** Official ABIT IC7/G (875P) Thread ***

    Does anyone have any additional info on whether the IC7-G will support the new Prescott CPU scheduled for release this fall? I for one would be pretty pissed off if this "most expensive MB ever purchased" was dead-ended before the next gen P4 CPUs!!! Karl :disgust:

    How easy is it to get the old NB fan off and get the Zalman NB32J attached. I read earlier in this thread that there replacement was anything but easy. Who carries the Zalman NB32J? I can't see it at Newegg or Googlegear. Thanks, Karl

    Try this link: ftp://ftp.abit.com.tw/pub/download/fae/ic714.exe There is no "g" in the file name, as the web site suggets. It is the right BIOS though. Karl

    *** Official ABIT IC7/G (875P) Thread ***

    I just got and installed an IC7-G. It replaced an MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R, which was just too buggy. Now I know what all you have beem talking about. This board Rocks. I have twin Corsair PC-3200C2PT and a P4-300 800 FSB and this thing just screams. I agree that the Turbo setting seems the most...
