H*ll may freeze over. *sigh*, Kicks self for buying a "off" brand (Although, buying *BIG NAME* brands seems no better). Was there any question that Vista *was* going to be released the moment CPP hit? All these dense suppliers that did not have working drivers +ready+ by release day, don't care to support older hardware. |

Steve...
For now I'm just happy, I have access to my drives, where I store my downloads etc. Haven't had any issues with the set since I set it up under XP... If I really need to fiddle with it, I'll just boot to my XP and do it under that. Lilo "Steve Urbach" skrev i meddelelsen ...

Silicon Image sill 0680 ultra-133 medley ata raid controller [
@Steve
Medley v1.2.0.5 works for me perfectly on both Vista 32-bit & 64-bit. Setup/Load/Configuration & Monitoring are all working 100%. (if I could post a screencap I would!) 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. @Carlo67 The link to the drivers you sent are for NON-RAID versions of the card - but you indicate you have a RAID controller. If you use my links, it will be seen as a RAID controller, not the IDE version with 3 independent drivers attached. The other important thing is not to flash the RAID BIOS with the NON-RAID update (v3.2.2.0) - as this will* also convert the RAID controller into a standard IDE controller. * There are two main flavours of the Sil0680 card - one with a jumper which you can manually set RAID or IDE, and one without. If you have a version without, then it relies on the BIOS info to enable or disable the RAID functions - which is why you MUST NOT flash a RAID controller with a NON-RAID (ie IDE) BIOS. If the POST/BIOS boot screens on your PC still show the controller as a RAID one, then you're fine as far as the BIOS goes - just use the drivers I linked to, and you'll get RAID under Vista. Unfortunately, the link you left contains several IDE (non-raid) BIOS updates. The last official RAID BIOS version was v3.2.1.0. However, of you have the version of the card with the Jumper, then you can actually use the later v3.2.2.24 (!use at your own risk! !you break it - tough luck! ) So, in brief - All versions of Vista (32-bit & x64) work with the 0680 Sil Controller, as well as the medley monitoring software. Hope that this helps. "Steve Urbach" wrote: On Tue, 13 Mar 2007 15:37:45 +0530, carlo67 wrote: Hi I installed vista 32bit and xp pro with dual boot.
