Hey all -- I have a wierd problem with my p5wd2 premium... I have 4 SATA drives all together, hooked up the 4 sata ports by the southbridge (none are attached to the single SATA port by the cpu).
I have 3 of the drives in a raid array and the 4th (raptor) on its own. The problem is, I set the raptor to be the bootable harddrive, but every once in a while, the intel array sets itself as the primary drive, and the pc tries to boot off of it, leading to an all black screen with a blue cursor in the middle...
I can reboot, change the setting in the bios and all will be fine, but 2-3 boots later, it gets switched back, and I ahve to switch it back. When this happens, all the rest of my settings are unchanged, so it seems like its only changing that one option. The only real differences from default settings are that I'm overclocked (about 256 fsb). The computer does turn off when it reboots (the asus fail safe feature when the fsb is above 240), so that may be part of the reason why.. Has anyone had/seen this problem before? TIA.
