"Array is not defined"
Hello!,
I've got MSI KT3 Ultra motherboard, and such problem while starting computer: Everything goes OK, until there appears message on the screen "No Array Is Defined, Ctrl-F to enter FastBuilt, Esc to continue booting. When I try to enter BIOS, it is impossible. There is a message "No disk is found. Please check power cord, and connection to motherboard" or sth like that. When I Press ESC computer boots, and everything works. What may couse this problem?? Szymon |

Szymon did you try to enter the bios *immediately* at boot up or were you trying to enter it after you had gotten the error? if you cannot enter the bios initially, try resetting the bios. there is usually a reset jumper near the battery |

Apparently RAID manufacturers assume you'll set up an array else disable it, so you'll keep seeing related messages rather than being prompted only once then having to seek this information yourself. It reads "no disk found" (most likley) because you don't have any drives connected to the RAID controller's ports. Your motherboard should have another set of ports, perhaps SATA, or PATA like the first (pair) that are unused or possibly you mistakenly plugged optical drives/etc into those ports. If you don't plan on using the RAID then consult motherboard manual for the method to disable the RAID controller... should be a jumper or bios setting. |
