I have been running into some problems setting up a RAID 0 array on a SOYO DRAGON PLUS MB.

Hopefully somebody can help me out here. Here it goes.


My two IBM 30GB 75GXP HD are connected as follows:
One on IDE3 and the other on IDE4(the RAID controllers). The are both jumpered up as MASTER(slave and CS have also been tryied) as written in the DRAGON + manual.

The jumber on the D+ MB are also set correctly as according to the manual. In the BIOS Onboard promise IDE RAID are enabled.

The RAID/ATA&SCSI boot order are set to RAID/ATA,SCSI and the first boot device are set as SCSI.

When the computer posts it shows the FASTTRACK100-Lite script and then it searches for RAID arreys it shows these five-six dots on the monitor and then nothing, the cursor ends up blinking on the screen.(the CPU is NOT OC when doing this).

Nothing are installed on these HD. They have both been FDISKed and formatted(have also tryied when not FDISKed or formatted).

The BIOS version are 2ba2.

I haved tryied to press CTRL-F during this but nothing happens

NOW WHAT?????
I am getting desperate here:confused:, and YES thid is my first RAID 0 setup.

Please help me out here!!!!!!!!

P.S My Danish are better

You should post the BIOS setting for your mobo, especially for the RAID BIOS. Also, what is the boot sequence of your system?
