Ok, I found the MediaShield. Nice one nVidia. Here it is. You have to install the drivers with the RAID defines at the BIOS level since it will not install the RAID drivers if the RAID is not enabled in the BIOS. After doing so, the MediaShield application appers in the start menu!!!

Following a serie of reduce and rebuild, followed by two orphan disk in a RAID1 configuration, I decided to transition away from the Silicon Image 3114 controller to the embedded nVRAID controller of the nForce4 SLI chipset. I verified the integrity of both disks, Maxtor DiamondMax 10 SATA 300GB...
I have the A8N SLI Premium working with two 1G DIMM for a total of 2GB. No problem with it. Memory are standard DDR400 Kingston, nothing fancy here.

I am about to update the BIOS of my Asus A8N SLI Premium. While downloading the update files, I read the warning that Windows drivers MUST be upgraded PRIOR doing the BIOS update to prevent a boot failure. What if I have to reinstall Windows after the BIOS update. Will my PC boot since the...
According to your signature, you should be using the Silicon Image RAID controller. Are you experiencing some REBUILD task? At a few occasions, without any reasons, I had the "RAID Group reduced" message, causing the rebuilding of the RAID set. What can cause this?
When updating the BIOS of...
Guys,
If I remember correctly, the Windows XP installer doesn't support drives larget than 127GB. I had the same problem on my last install. I installed SP1, and then run Partition Magic to increase the size of my partition. I don't know if you install using a XP SP1 or XP SP2 you have the...
That's right, but what is the best configuration, performance wise? I would think that putting all the drives on the same controller would result in less performance. Can you confirm the nce of two internal controllers into the nForce4?

Hi all,
I should receive my new rig in a few days, and I would like to know if someone ever encountered any problems setting a RAID-1 using two Maxtor DiamondMax 10 SATA 300GB drives on an ASUS A8N-SLI Premium. These drives will only contain data since I will get a Raptor 74GB for the OS and...
Can a P180 owner give me the exact height of the case. On Antec site it is stated 21.3po, but I wonder if this includes the deflector of the top mounted fan or not.
And how the noise, since it is supposed to be part of the Quiet Computing serie?
Thanks,

Mackie2k,
I am also looking to buy this card, but nowhere to be found. Is it really the X800 XT AIW that is offered ? Is it a pre-order, or it is somewhere in stock ?
I am ready to buy, but can't decide between waiting (for how long...) the X800 XT AIW, buying the cheaper X600 AIW, or an...
Hi all,
I am about to buy a new fast system and I am trying to find any article showing the performance of the AMD Athlon 64 when varying the DDR memory timing at DDR-400 speed. I have found a lot of article showing the effect when overclocking, but none when leaving the memory at its nominal...
Hi all,
I'm looking to complete an upgrade of my old rig and need advices on video card compatibility. I know I have to buy a new system but I want to wait for all the new technology that comes in the next few months, so please don't answer "buy a new system...". Any way, this P2B will go th...
I already removed all jumpers from the drive. It was not recognized by the BIOS with the master jumper on!!!... There is effectively some jumper settings to limit the drive to 32GB, but of course, I want the full 80GB that I just bought!!!
During testing, I swapped between the two drives 40GB...
You probably read my post very fast. I mentionned that my 40GB, already above the 32GB knows BIOS limitation is working fine in my P2B system. Already running the latest BIOS.
I don't want to invest any more on this old system, I just want to replace a faulty HD.
Thanks anyway for the reply.

Don't tell me I am the only one stuck which such a system !!! Help please. I just need the make and model number of you large capacity HD on your ASUS P2B system.
Please don't reply by suggesting jumper or autoconfiguration, latest BIOS, I did that already.

My Maxtor DiamondMax 40GB now gives me a SMART warning, so I am looking for a replacement. I want to upgrade to a 80GB. I bought today a Western Digital WD800JB 80GB 8Meg buffer, only to find that it is not recognized correctly by my BIOS. It sees only it as 32GB (my old 40GB is recognized as a...
