NF7-S Rev 2.0 ufficiale FSB 400Mhz

[High Speed]

ragazzi ho bisogno di una mano....
ho messo il bios beta 1.4 ed ora mi sono deciso di attivare il serial ata attraverso l' adattatore in dotazione.... ma non ci sono riuscito....
allora se dovessi installare da capo premerei f6 quando installo win xp, metterei il floppy e via....
ma io il sistema l ho già installato....
setto tutti i parametri
attivo serial ata,
faccio partire il sistema ma dopo la schermata che mi riconosce l' hard disk (maxtor d9 60gb) il serial ata il computer si riavvia impendendomi di accedervi anche in modalità provvisioria....
come li metto sti benedetti driver allora ?
please aiuto

[kali-]

credo che basti spostare il disco sul ctrl sata
ovviamente sotto win devi aver installato i driver prima dello spostamento

dovrebbe funzionare

Non puoi pensare di cambiare controller (da IDE a SATA) senza reistallare winxp... i driver del controller sono scritti nel kernel che non si avvia se non può accedere al disco (e non può perchè gli hai cambiato controller...)
quindi o lo rimetti sull'IDE o reinstalli Winxp con il disco sul SATA inserendo i driver con F6 quando te lo chiede

scusa ma nel file allegato ai serial dice così :

Trad (solo del titolo):
Come aggiungere il controller Sil 3x12 su un'installazione di WinXP/2000 esistente

Non ti dice che puoi usare lo stesso disco cambiandogli controller, per i motivi che ho detto prima. Ti dice solo come aggiungere il controller su un sistema già installato... se voui usare il SATA devi reistallare purtroppo

[High Speed]

ma allora in teoria potrei prima attivarlo e poi cambiare il tipo di collegamento....
potrei aggiungerlo facendo finta di voler installare un altro hd...
poi prendo invece questo e lo sposto....
che succederà ?

The NF7 series models, based on nForce2 chipset, supports the latest AMD Athlon XP processors with 200/266/333/400 FSB, and features new dual 400MHz DDR memory controllers that deliver up to a 50% increase in bandwidth.

Sara' per tutte le rev di nf7 ?

A parte tutto sembra che solo abit per ora confermi il supporto per gli xp a 400 con il chipset nf 2.
Gli altri costruttori di mobo sembra che vogliano ufficializzare il supporto solo con mobo con nf2 ultra.
Mi sembra molto discordante la cosa!!!!!
Voi che ne pensate in merito? Ciao

spegnere...
cambiare il tipo di collegamento...
e riavviare ?

e devo togliere prima i sw ide nvidia ?

Ritorna a IDE. Accendi il PC, installa i driver S-ATA. Spegni. Ricollega l'HD al controller S-ATA. Ri-accendi.

[High Speed]

infatti fatto così... e tutto ok
la cosa era che dovevo abilitare il sata prima rimanere con ide ed andare in win mettere i driversata e poi poter fare il passaggio
grazie cmq devis
il masterizzatore l' ho lasciato sul ide secondario

ps ho messo i 10028 vanno bene ?
ah
ho il bios beta1.4 ho provato a spostare file video da 700mb senza problemi o vederli come faccio a capire se ho problemi di corruzione ?

[marksiena]

secondo voi che versione ho della nf7-s????

in sandra dice che la rev è 1.x....con wcpuid la rev è A2!!!
è la rev 1.2...la rev 2.0??

Se non hai due hard disk sata in raid non hai corruzione la corruzione si ha solo con il raid.
Per marksiena vedi se wcpuid ti vede il chipset come C1.
