Hello readers, it's not a FreeBSD question but I hope to get help/suggestions to solve this problem because you are working everyday with SMP. This email was sent to MSI after talking at lot of times with Adaptec and MSI. They sent me a new BIOS, v1.8b1, no improvement. It seems to me that there is a big DMA conflict which doesn't allow the RAID BIOS to boot. I consider to buy ASUS A7M 266D ... what to to with "the old one"? Does anyone uses the K7D Master? ----- Forwarded message from Robert Barten <robert@barok.de> ----- Dear Sirs, our problem: System hangs when trying to start RAID BIOS. our configuration: K7D Master L (everything onboard is deactivated!) AMD-760 MPX Chipset MB BIOS v1.8b1 (also tested v1.3, v1.5 and v1.6) 2 GB reg.
