Hey there - me again!
I have just had a major major prob with my computer. I restarted it and it my Intel raid BIOS said Optionrom could not be loaded and then went on to say "invalid system disk - insert disk and press enter" (you know the message, its similar to that).
I went into bios, and as i do when anything goes wrong, i un-overclocked it and checked over the settings. I changed bootable add-in device to Onboard SATA and then it worked once and i was given a recovery option but i forgot to set USB recognition by BIOS and i had to restart and then i promtly got the error again.
I tried again and again and eventually it just worked again for no reason and i do not know whats up!!!
All i have done today is re-wired it more efficiently, took out a couple LEDS and installed my PCI TV-Card (Leadtek TV200 deluxe)
I have a 32Kb raid 0 array with 2x Samsung Spinpoint 80Gb 7200rpm 8mb cache from OCUK (if you need more info) and i am using the Intel controller (ICHR5) on an Abit IC7-G and have an Antec 400w Tru Power PSU.
Anyone know what could be causing this?
Both drives are activly cooled in my antec file server case and there are 3 case fans and the CPU fan so i dont think its heat.
argh!!
any help is appreciated greatly as i dont want this to happen again!
thanks all.
