Hello
If you can help with any of the below, I would be very grateful. Especialy since I am isolated from English support here in Japan!
1) On XP startup, I get a warning about the video card not getting enough power so the system will automaticaly reduce performance to cope.
2) I also get a warning on entering nTune that "The PCI clock is currently set to track the HT bus" and that I should disable it before proceeding.
3) I am trying to run my Seagates in a normal SATA way, no RAID. However, Windows does not recognize the second drive (BIOS does). And there is a "Safely Remove Hardware" message at the bottom of Windows (refering to the Seagates) that appeared after I installed the "Nvidia chipset driver program" from the mobo disk.
4) Additionaly, I ran the nTune auto-tuning for best memory performance (as it said my memory was below benchmarks). On one of the restarts it activates, my PC did something really crazy. [at this point I should mention that I had earlier set up a LAN connection to my old PC through the Marvell Yukon (top) jack.] It turned the power 'on' on my old PC, and started to bootfrom it. I know this becasue the old PC always ran a strange checkdisk during startup. My new PC also ran this checkdisk, but started deleting a bunch of files and then locked at the startup Windows logo. I tried everything I could to fix this (no safemode would activate; Windows install would lock during "checking for previous versions of Windows"; even using "format C:" from the mobo disk DOS), but nothing worked. After an alarming amount of push botton power-offs, I decided to just switch the SATA cables and start again, leaving the original Seagate totaly unconnected. And I am now afraid to hookup the network, or the second Seagate.
Again, any help greatly apreciated! Thank you!
