Urgent Help Needed Please
- Hi All
- I'm new to this.....
- I've built my perfect computer, or so i thought

- MOTHERBOARD: INTEL DX48BT2
- PROCESSOR: QUAD CORE EXTREME QX9770 3.2 Ghz
- RAM: 4 X 2GB DDR3 10666
- 2 x SATA 2 WESTERN DIGITAL 500 GB HDD's
- ICUTE 1000W PSU
- LG BLUE RAY / HD DVD PLAYER - SATA
- SONY DVD PLAYER/RE WRITER
- WINDOWS VISTA ULTIMATE 64
- ATI SAPPHIRE 3880 x 2 1 GB DDR3 RAM (3880 i think)
- Dont think i've missed anything.
- Anyway, got vista to install first time, but took 2 attempts so had Vista x 2 on 1 HDD, Vista didnt recognise the second HDD.
- Reformatted the second HDD NFTS so Vista recognised it, but then started having problems. System keeps shutting down.
- Installed INTEL software
- Installed Regcure & found 20,000 errors, so decided to start again.
- Now i cant get windows to load, it keeps shutting down half way through installation. Not to mention i cant get the RAID format to work.
- I took out the battery from the Motherboard, left for a while & put back in incase that was the problem, but still, i cant get RAID & cant install windows.
- F2 detects HDD's, but RAID does not.
- Connections are as follows :-
- HDD1 - SATA1
- HDD2 - SATA2
- BLUERAY - SATA3
- DVD - SATA4
- I thought it maybe my graphics card overheating, but i cant see it as i had multiple fans in a cold room with the case open keeping it cool.
- Any help is much appreciated, because as it stands I'm stuch with an ATX Tower that is non functional.
- All other periferals seems to work fine by the way, maybe its the way i've set things up (its my first time)
- Thanks
- Andrew
