I'm trying to setup a SATA drive on this mobo. I'm using Windows 2000 Pro. I made a disk with the si3112 info and used that with the F6 option. It seems to install, but when the computer reboots it doesn't start off the SATA drive. If I go throu the setup procedure again it shows that the...

I would like to put a single stick of 1 GB DDR400 in my GA-7VAX. Gigabyte's Technology Guide article for this board, which hasn't been updated in some time, doesn't list any recommended 1 GB modules (the highest it has is a 512 MB Kingston.) Has anyone put a single stick of 1 GB DDR400 in their...

Just installed. Up and running. The book is a little confusing. I'm using 2 WD Raptors. Don't know if it is better to use drives in raid mode or base mode. I installed the OS using the SI3512 drivers not the SI3512R drivers. In the bios integrated peripherals there is a choise for Raid or Base,...

Hi I'm sure this question has been asked before, so my appologies if I missed the answer. I have a GA-6BXU mobo which I would like to upgrade the 450mHz CPU.

Hi! As said in the subject I'm planning to upgrade from 845P to 875P. Running a 1700MHz Willamete CPU on GA-8IRXP (with which I'm quite happy ;-) I'm planning to change the board at the first step and later buying a 800FSB CPU. Question is: Will my FSB400 CPU (no Northwood) run in the 8KNXP or do...
