This worked perfectly! I'd like to thank you all for your feedback and time that you have put into solving this problem. I hope this helps others! Nerds unite!

As my specs say, I am running a mediocre eVGA GTX260 with the software eVGA Precision Tool. This program works great in keeping an eye on my GPU temps. Before you recommend any of other programs that monitor this and many more components, that will not be necessary. The front of my case has a...

I decided to format entirely to RC1 as it is recommended by Microsoft. I was unable to do raid so i'm sitting with one of my 10k drives as the primary partition. Also, I noticed minor issues are now gone with my O/S. Things are smoother, and no it is not because it removed all the clutter...

I understand what a .exe file does but it needs to load as a driver at the beginning of the windows installation. Windows needs the right driver so that raid 0 will work. I have a diploma in Computer Systems at a recognized college so I am not an idiot. I picked up my hardware manual and I am...

I will try this and if it works, well then I owe you a drink or something hahaha. Thank you for your prompt responses folks.

Without sounding like a newb, usually raid drivers are .inf files that are used during the installation of Windows (load drivers button). This is a .exe file... That is where I am confused. Thank you for your advice.

I'm not sure if you are referring to the chipset sb600/690g but if you are, I really need a link to download the win7 raid drivers. I am very lost in all of this. I've tried looking for sb600/690g win7 raid drivers and nothing.

As the title says, I am in DESPERATE need of Windows 7 Asus M2A-VM Raid Drivers. The vista and XP ones do not work. The beta version of the drivers on the Asus website do not work neither. Google is hopeless on this one. If anyone has this driver, you would be my god! hahah please respond...

Hello folks! I recently attempted a raid 0 on these 3 builds of Win 7 with my raptor drives and when i enter the installation, it doesn't recognize my raid 0 as a drive to install windows on. Before you answer, I know that raid 0 works fine on Vista because prior to the format, vista was on...

As a general discussion thread, I'd like to hear your opinion on how to repair motherboards unconventionally. I am not some douche-bag loser that doesn't know anything - it's my job/hobby doing hardware repairs. I know how to use google. I took electrical in college as well so I do have a...

Excellent! Wow, very prompt - thank you! Well then, I have a whole day of formatting ahead of me and a second day of figuring out Ubuntu tomorrow :). Thanks - enjoy the sun!

Good day to all, I am about to format my PC and my partitions are creating quite a hassle for me. To begin, this is my setup: - 2 x 72 Gigs Western Digital Raptor 10k in Raid 0 - 1 x Hitachi 500 Gigs storage drive Partitions(please don't ask how my PC ended up this way): - 144 Gigs...

second post I realize that this topic is partial PC and TV related, and this kind of sucks technically, but it is what it is. I see that a good 40 people took a quick stare at my post. I still hope some nerd out there shares the knowledge to fix this. VGA is not an option for me - HDMI is a...

Good day to all! I just wanted input for others on what they think the issue is. Please take a quick peak at my systems specs for full details. In Windows 7 and Vista (ruling out driver issue), nVidia GTX 260 here are my stats: Display 1: BenQ 19inch LCD 1280x1024 75Hz native Display...

Good day to all! I have shamefully purchased a Shamwow set to discover that it is actually a Sham-tastic product. Yes, you heard me, it cleans like a mofo. I freaken cleaned my whole kitchen after investing $20 dollars on this product. Now, I have one mystery to figure out: will the...
