    Null Error as well as RAID Failure at same time?

    So I shut down my computer last night only to reboot it and upon entering the RAID screen find flashing red letters saying "DEGRADED." Then, upon getting into windows, it finally finished booting after 5 minutes to tell me "Windows was unable to find "(null)" and it showed two hard drives. I...

    so should I run a FSB of 1600 with memory at 400 then (3.0ghz with RAM at 800mhz)? I am new to the over clocking game. I had no idea how much higher you could go with these Intel core 2 duos. Any information is appreciated. By the way, how high can I go on stock cooling. When running...

    I took Core's advice and overclocking minimally to 2700. My main question is, since my RAM is DDR2-800 4-4-4-12-2T, and it is only running at 600mhz, isn't it not utilizing all of its bandwith? I want to make sure that since I spent all that money on this RAM, that I am using it to its fullest...

    I just installed Speedfan Beta 8 and it still doesn't show the Core temps. I got it right off this page. EDIT: Forget it... I was using the wrong download link and wasn't signed in

    With regards to Speedfan 4.31, my temperatures never really fluctuate at all? Is there something wrong with the program or board. The setup I am using never leaves 40C for the core temp? Isn't there a program that measures northbrige and southbridge chipset temps too? 1. The 40C just...

    adder and core... The problem that I found with my setup was not with the hardware whatsoever. It ended up being the CA Antivirus and Firewall trying to automatically configure with the internet and it was not following through. I found this out by disconnecting the RJ-45 cable and...

    Yes, raid was enabled, but I could not get XP to load until I used the NVIDIA driver. I started with two clean drives, turned RAID on, enabled NVIDIA controllers in XP setup, and went from there. I don't think that RAID is the problem here. I have that down pretty good now. The problem is...

    When I get home tonight (730pmest... yep, long day...) I will let you know. I do remember seeing it before and it was quite cool, but I don't remember the exact value. What timings and voltage core do you recommend? Currently everything is set to auto except the timing at 4-4-4-12-2T@2.08V...

    I did start with two clean drives and the Drivers and RAID was enabled before installing. That is not the problem. Something went corrupt after I transferred my documents from another networked computer. It was working fine for the hour before I did this after the winxpx86 install.

    No, I was not running RAID before those changes. That was done before I loaded the RAID driver in the Windoes setup and followed through from there. I really have no idea what could be wrong. With the disks mirroring, does it take some time after the transfer of a large amount of files...

    I got them from the supplied CD that came with the motherboard and created the disk using their itility. I will check out the Nvidia RAID drivers also tonight. I will also manually set the RAM to 4-4-4-12-2t @ 2.1V. Is there something I am obviously missing though with the HD. Should the...

    Well, once I get home tonight I will try that. They are currently in the black slots now because of the problems I remember hearing about people using them in the yellow (although I thought 0401 fixed that). The spec timing is 4-4-4-12 with I think 2T? [i]edit was for the clock cycle...

    B2 meaning black slot which is furthest to the back (edge) of the board? The POST memcheck when it sometimes loads will read the full 2gb, so I don't think that's the problem but I can try again. Any idea why when it does make it through POST, that I cannot install xp64 let alone have...

    Load RIAD Drivers from USB

    I have been reading a few places and it says that the Windows XP install will not read RAID drivers from anything but a floppy. Is there any way to get around this and use a jump driver, per say?
