oups.com... Hello folks, did anybody got the Intel-RAID (ICH5R) working with Asus P4C800-E Deluxe (in Vista32)? How did you do that? Bye, duffy6 Yes, it works fine. You have to copy the raid controller drivers to a floppy. Boot into the bios, configure your hard drives as raid, build the raid array, boot from the Vista dvd, use the add drivers applet when setup starts and insert the floppy when prompted. NOTE: when you build the raid array all data on the drives will be lost. -- Jim |

Andi,
I did a successful upgrade from Win/XP Pro to Vista Ultimate. Had some issues with I/O drivers but are working through them. I was running a Raid 1 config on the ICH5R and the upgrade took care of itself and I didn't have to use the floppy disk driver trick. Looks like the update used the Raid drivers from Win/xp Pro. The only thing on the mother board that did not work to its full capacity was the onboard SoundMax sound chip. With Vista I got stereo output but not 5.1 suround sound. I talked to ASUS/AMD and they said that no new drivers will be comming for on board sound chip. What I did ws bought a cheep SoundBlaster SE PCI card. They have Vista beta drivers that gave me 5.1 suround back. I to have not heard of any problems with the ASUS P4C800E-Dlx board. Rich "Andi" wrote in message oups.com...

So, no problems with upgrading from XP.
But is there anybody who did a new clean (SATA) RAID install of vista with this board? I read about problems he http://groups.google.de/group/micros...295aa6f378e537 P.S.: btw there is another (crackling sound) problem (with XP) with this board: http://forums.creative.com/creativel...ending&page=10 |

I did on 1/29/07. I booted into the OEM Home Premium DVD...already had my
Raid 0 array set up. At one point, could not find the drives, so I put in the last version of my Matrix drivers from Jan 06. Once the drivers were loaded...the raid array was recognized...and smooth sailing from there. Don't know what the fuss is. I have the P4C800E-Deluxe with Two WD Raptor 74 GB 10,000 RPM HDD's in the array. Vista is smokin with NO issues whatsoever. Audigy 2 ZS with beta drivers seems to work OK for now. Waiting for Creative to wake up and release a Vista suite for the card. Bob "Andi" wrote: So, no problems with upgrading from XP.
