An error message during start-up.

[Roberto]

During (Windows-XP) start-up, I receive an error message that states:
"Controller not found Error - No SiI controller found in the system".

I had a Intel 955x moher board, and just i update the bios this message
came out.

What i should do to fix this problem?

This is not a Windows problem. You've got something in your BIOS that is
looking for an SiI drive controller (probably RAID) but not finding it.
Go into your BIOS setup and fix your boot order. Or maybe you flashed
with the wrong BIOS or perhaps this is a known issue with the new
flash. Check with the motherboard mftr.

Hello. Did you get rid of this problem? And how?? I have the same
problem at startup. Annoying...

Unfortunately, no one can help you because you are not posting on a real
forum as you think you are and you didn't quote any of the thread to which
you are replying. You are using a web interface that leeches Usenet posts
and most of the rest of us are using real newsreaders. We don't see what
you do. If you want to participate in Usenet, the better way is to set up a
newsreader. This is very easy to do and I'll give you information about
that below. If you prefer to use a forum, then here are two excellent ones:

Since you are using a web interface, you may not realize that this is really
a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you learn to use
a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows, but you can use
Outlook Express (XP) or Windows Mail (Vista) since you already have it.
Here are some links to information about newsgroups:
