AX4B Pro-533 conflict with PCI RAID and TV Tuner

External Since: Dec 09, 2003 Posts: 4

I have the noted board with latest bios, 1GB RAM, TI4200, Celeron 1.7. The O/S is irrelevant because my problem is pre O/S load.
I have a Promise FastTrak 100 with 2 WD200 drives in a RAID 0, I also have an ATI TV Wonder, No matter which slot I put either card
in, if both cards are installed the machine will not boot. I have XP loaded on a single drive which boots fine with the tuner
installed. I also have XP loaded on the RAID array which boots fine unless the tuner is installed, then it hangs right after the
RAID card confirms the array is functional.
I've tried clearing CMOS, disabling all onboard devices and every slot combination but it fails to boot if both cards are present,
any ideas?

You might want to update the BIOS on the Promise card. The latest version
for the FastTrak is 2.00.0.24 that I can tell. Anyways, it's worth a shot
even it doesn't explicitly address your issue. Here is a link..
