My Vista's are always clean installs. The last version released is downloadable from http://www.siliconimage.com/docs/SiI...iICfg-1205.zip For those not familiar with Medley, you don't need it by default - it just provides some feedback and SMART monitoring ability - which is built into Vista performance/reliability monitor now. Vista now also defaults to the fastest UDMA mode for the controller - so you don't need it for maximum performance. I will give it a try.. Thanks. |

Silicon Image sill 0680 ultra-133 medley ata raid controller [
my sil 0680 raid controller with SiI0680A IDE BIOS (base Bios) for
converting it in a no-raid controller My results: Bios version 3.2.24 (version for RAID and NO RAID) with driver for vista (downloaded from windows update): Incorrect, BIOS version v3.2.24 is NOT for RAID - is disables RAID on cards which do not have a jumper on the card that allows you to manually change RAID/IDE compatibility. F3 message(Press F3 to enter RAID utility) don't appear during boot , That is the expected behaviour for a NON-RAID controller. You have turned your RAID controller into a standard IDE controller - so you won't get any "F3" option. This is exactly what to expect as you flashed it with v3.2.24 NON-RAID firmware. in Vista device manager the controller is installed but no access to cd-dvd rom teac (it don't appear in my computer resources) Bios vers 3.2.20 for raid controller and no vista driver (don't available): F3 message appear,in vista device manager, appear RAID controller but with no driver available,teac dvdrom no available. Bios vers 3.2.20 for IDE controller and Driver vers 1.2.26.0 by SiliconImage: NO RAID controller,in Vista device manager the controller is installed but teac dvdrom no available in computer resources Conclusion: with any bios and driver no optical disc available I have tried to install XP drivers for RAID controller In Windows Vista with my initial Bios but Computer freeze for updating Can you help me? Sorry, I've never used the IDE version of the card, or the IDE only drivers. |

Hi popo140,
The forum that you are using is really leaching off of USENET - and so the majority of people reading your post cannot see any prior parts of the message thread. I hope that Lilo is able to help you, but if not, you may want to start a new thread and post all the details you can about your device.

I've tried every BIOS from 3.2.00 (RAID) through 3.400 (non-RAID), but none changes operation when the jumper setting is changed. The jumper does work and toggles pin 80 of the chip. Also all the non-RAID BIOSes are coded with the RAID setup menu. -- larrymoencurly ------------------------------------------------------------------------ larrymoencurly's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/208854.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/vista-har...ces/697471.htm http://forums.techarena.in |
