Update, I managed to get the board to POST with all cards on the board, but only with the CPU fan pulled out. As soon as I connect the cpu fan then board **** down after 3 seconds of power. "JohnD" wrote in message ... I bought a new...

He's talking about later beta bios versions. Not whats on the gigabyte site. We all know that the F5 is the latest there. As for his question i havnt seen any later bios versions than the F6k. Thats what ive got Ken "Matt" wrote in message

In an inquiry to GB tech support, I received this reply regarding the memory I presently have installed in this computer: "Please check the Kingston, is it PC3200 with 2.5v or 2.6v on the module? If it is a 2.6v, it does not work properly on this board." Has anyone heard of anything like this...

Hi gang, Sorry if this is a daft question but I don't fully appreciate the implications/limitations of running hard drives from IDE3 and IDE4 on the SINXP board. Quite simply I cannot get Win XP's (Home Edition, SP1) built-in power management to suspend any of my HDDs on these channels. Note...

Wolfgang, Happy to help out. :-) Now I need to test my 6BXE's WoL capabilities. Best regards, Bob. "Wolfgang Eichel" wrote in message ...

Is this board fussy about what brand of memory it uses, I'm only going to be putting simple (Something like Crucial http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/PartSpecs.asp?imodule=CT6464Z40B&cat=RAM ) PC3200 as I won't be overclocking in any way? Also I presume it's safe to run a 266/333 FSB CPU (at 266/333...

regarding my issues with f6(raid2) bios, i decided to downgrade bios from f6(raid2) to f6 official, but the problem remains, because it is IMPOSSIBLE to enter the sata bios utility with ctrl+s or F4. i do not have any sata hd attached on sata controller, and maybe this is the default behaviour of...

I'd like to be able to use a single HDD on IDE 3. There must be some simple step that I'm missing because whenever I connect to IDE 3 the PC will not boot, it hangs at NTLDR not found. Since a single drive didn't work I tried 2 HDD on IDE 3, master/slave, and two Raid options were...

Thanks, That is what I have. I do boot off SATA ok, but only if the 2nd disc (IDE) is plugged into the ITE & it is configured as non RAID (the manual says 'ATA' I think). However, the thing that doesn't work is if you have an IDE disc in the standard Primary Channel but want to boot of the SATA...

where can i get a copy of the GA-8KNXP 6k beta bios i am having memory issues. thanks

I am using a Highpoint 'Rocket 133 S' (non-raid) with my 8knxp and it works great. The integrated Highpoint Raid controllers on several past motherboards have worked well. When Adaptec decided to release a hardware based ata133 raid card, they chose Highpoint chips to control it. So, no direct...

I have a problem doing large amounts of disk I/O from ITE drive to ITE drive in DOS. By ITE drive I merely mean the Gigaraid ITE controller used in ATA mode. WHY in DOS you ask? Well, I use Powerquest Drive Image to create image files in DOS, and I have found that if both source and target HDDs...

I initially connected my two drives in RAID 0 to the ICH5R with the F5 and they were recognized after I downloaded from Intel the updated driver and used it during windows XP install. I was experiencing some problems with one drive (at least the controller was telling I was), so I switched to the...

I have no problems running that combo. Maybe it's a defective mobo.

I'm considering buying the GA-7NNXP and I was wondering if there are any problems I should know about before I take the plunge? I won't be o/c I just want a stable board that's all, would be nice if they gave decent tech support but from what I've read that one goes out the window (bit like Abit I...

Well, the folks at Gig's offices got me out of the woods. I will put them back on my buy list, with an unhappy face, since I figure the board ought to come with the proper drivers, already on diskette, and very clear instructions. Anyway, the folks there emailed me a zip file with the proper...
