Alright been searching for a few hours... 1205 bios been using the board for a couple months now opty 170 @ 2.7, 7900gtx sli, x-fi, single dvd-+rw
Have a Raid5 on the Nvidia controller... 4 x 320gb seagates... Have a 74gb Raptor on the Sil Controller...
Setup everything, Raptor to master boot, nvidia as second... ran f10 nvidia raid program, reset the raptor as the master boot blah blah blah...
Now when everything is setup I get a NTLDR %SystemRoot%\Partion error .. which looks like a typical nt loader error for boot sector stuff as windows doesnt even hit the xp logo. I am guessing that Windows is trying to boot off the raid array (brand new empty drives) but tried to boot off the raptor on the other controller first and thats how I am getting an NT popup..
I have tried everything I can think of. I depise the errors I always have with boot issues on these new mainboards with multiple controllers... I swear with so many sata/pata ports makes this stuff a nightmare to configure correctly.
