I have a Gigabyte GA965DS3 with two sata 250GB configured as Raid-0 and a SATA 500GB running stand-alone. I also have a 250GB ide and Lite-on DVD writer on the IDE bus. Drive C raid, Drive F SATA, Drive D ide, Drive E Lite-on DVD
While this configuration (config A) contains all the devices and works for the most part, playing audio through the realtek system on the motherboard is unacceptable - choppy and stuttering - apparently sensitive to page file activity(?) I see many others with similar issues with the crappy jraid and realtek on gigabyte boards!
So I recently used beyond compare to "clone" the Raid0 to the 500GB SATA drive and installed xp on it from the CD (with the raid drives unplugged). I intend to boot from the stand alone and use this configuration (config B) long term as the audio playback works much better. Drive C SATA, Drive F Raid, Drive D ide, Drive E Lite-on DVD.
Config B looks pretty good; however, i can no longer see any ide drives, and the registry entry for scsi port0 bus0 is empty. I tried exporting this entry from the config A registry HKLM/HARDWARE/DEVICEMAP/Scsi/Scsi Port 0/Scsi Bus0 and importing into Config B - but i was unable to write to this part of the registry- safe mode either. ide drives show up in configuration A as target id 0 and 1 on bus0.

I also tried to rescan disks in the disk manager to no avail, and tried the "high and low filter" registry removal trick.

Since i can see and use these drives fine in config A, i suspect my problem is in the registry.

Does anyone know how to fix the scsi registry entries in XP?

thanks!
