I now have two 64 bit Windows 7 running on different HDD. Both were loaded from the same DVD, used the same reg key and were activated automatically. A third windows 7 (32bit) is running on a third HDD. That's as far as I have got. But I intend to put XP on a forth HDD on the same machine. The...

Thanks for the help chaps - just waiting for the Samsung F3's to arrive. Arthur Clarke

I have a disc caddy on my new machine, which takes 4 HDD. My plan is to have 4 bootable HDD each with a different OS installed. (well 3 OS actually) Each disc will cover a different aspect of the work I do. Except one which will only be for games. My problem is: can I install the same OS (from...

Anybody know which socket of an SLI MoBo a DUO (2x7900GTX) card fits into and what is the SLI/normal switch set to? Mobo - Abit fatal1ty AN8 SLI. Graphics card - XPower Duo 7900GTX SLI.

The RAID screen that comes up just after rebooting does not provide the facility to format the array only to say you want a RAID and to select to boot from that array. I'm at a loss.

I've done all that. The only problem is that when I get to the bit where you format the array (remember the CMos says its an array) XP sees it as two seperate drives. You say 'then activate the drives'. What does that mean and how do you do it? Sorry to be a bit thick but its my first RAID.

No, I have 2x 150Gb (just out) Raptors which I am trying to set up in RAID 0(performance-no fault tolerance). The Bios says they are one drive, XP says they are 2. The RAID driver came with the MOBO (Abit) and loads when I press F6. XP asks for it when I press F6.

I've set up a RAID in the BIOS using two identical SATA drives. Ive pressed F6 and loaded the driver fron floppy. When windows setup gets to the partitioning and formatting bit it sees my drives as two seperate drives and asks me which one I want to install XP on. Shouldn't these two drives be...

That was it!!! Somebody had been playing around in the BIOS of both machines. Thanks very much.

Thankyou. I'll check the BIOS but it will have to wait till tomorrow. I'll let you know if that was it or I have two duff MOBos

Just a thought. I have had some problems with external hard drives being recognized on some USB2 ports. I've found that they work if connected to A USB port that is mounted on the motherboard but not on one of the remote ports on the front of machines. I think its something to do with the...

I've got the same problem on two machines. They boot as soon as you switch on the PSU switch. (ie without pressing the power on button) Neither of the power on buttons are shorted out and neither are the MOBO pins so its not that. I've tried different PSUs and its exactly the same. Am I...

My new MoBo is a Nvidia 4 chipset with SLI. I initially only want to use one graphics card. Which slot does it go in - the X1 or the x16. The manual is not clear about this. The graphics card is a Geforce 6600GT.

I'm having trouble getting to the settings on my router and WAP. When I go to settings, the web is accessed and 'No page found' comes up. I do appreciate your help rvnguy but now Xmas is interfering and I'll have to leave till after. Happy Xmas to you and yours.

I've just checked through the 4 HDDs on the office machine and there is no NETGEAR SW anywhere so I'm not sure whether I loaded it on this machine which I only built recently. I must have loaded it on my old machine and thought it was this one. I'm getting too old for this - I think.

Cheers rvnguy. ipconfig is as you say. Not sure what you mean about internal network. Also can't see how to change config on the WAP. Workgroup names are identical and 'wins' is enabled. I'm sure I loaded some software for the WAP but can't find it.

I have a small home network. My office PC is connected to a Netgear router (RP614V2), the input of which goes to my cable STB which provides me with broadband internet. The router is also connected to a Netgear Wireless Access Point which provides internet access for my wifes PC and a laptop...

Check out faq 602 2731. If may not solve the problem but you will have some useful answers.

Brilliant! My mistake was in thinking that because the drives had been formatted seperately (NTFS) then the array would not need formatting but of course it does. Great stuff. I'll never stop learning from this site. Thanks all.

Hello Freestone, I ran diskmgr - the array shows up there but it's in black and it says it's 'UNALLOCATED'. Not sure what that means. Can anyone help?
