while i m waiting

Is it supposed to take hours? It's the furthest I've gotten to installing on raid. I left it this morning after the completing installation phase. I still had to disable signing enforcment. It gives me the choice; resume restart or delete recovery data.It gets to the black logo screen and stays busy for the half hour I could afford to wait. I get back and the pc is off. I turn it on and only get a colorful "resuming", then a curser and eventually no activity. Soz I restart again, disabled signing, and it 'resumes' and goes to the curser. I restart after a long lull and pick delete recovery data and restart. This time it goes back to the logo screen and that's were I left it. I've been following the nvidia sataraid recipe accept that I have the host on the Sil 3114 raid installing to the nVraid. Both drivers are loaded.

I note from your system specs that you have 2 graphics card in SLI. Disable one of them. SLI is currently unsupported in Vista. This *may* be part of the problem.

I read something like that before. When I get home and pregress wasn't made I'll take a card out. The BIOS only gives me a choice to enable/disable a warning, no the SLI itself. I think they did away with a couple of choices on SLI, seems way back at you could straight up enable/disable/auto on the SLI. -- Asus A8N SLI Deluxe BIOS 1014 Athlon 64 3000 nForce 4 Maxtor DiamondMax10 4x for Sil 3114 Hitachi sata II 4x for nVraid 1 GB Corsair XMS 4400 nvidia 6800 2x

Well that did the trick. Now that Vista is running and got a few things loaded. I'll put the other card back in and hopefully all goes well. -- Asus A8N SLI Deluxe BIOS 1014 Athlon 64 3000 nForce 4 Maxtor DiamondMax10 4x for Sil 3114 Hitachi sata II 4x for nVraid 1 GB Corsair XMS 4400 nvidia 6800 2x
