I am trying to employ an SiL 680 Ultra ATA/133 RAID card in IDE mode to
give me an additional channel for a spare hard disk which I have. The
relevant details of my system are listed below. I am using the latest
driver for the SiL board.
The problem is that, whichever PCI slot I use, the mobo BIOS sees the
board and identifies the drive attached to it. Windows recognises the
board and Device Manager says that it is working properly with no
problems. However, whether the HD is formatted as FAT32 or NTFS,
Windows does not see it.
The relevant hard drive is not faulty as is shown by substituting it
into one of the onboard IDE channels. There is no reason to believe
that the RAID card is faulty.
Does anybody know if this is a known bug? Is there a setting in Windows
which I have overlooked?
Abit KT7 motherboard on which the onboard IDE controller has two hard
disks (120GB and 20GB) and two CD-ROM drives installed.
Windows XP Pro SP2, fully updated.
AMD Athlon 1000MHz.
512KB memory.
