the msi k7t turbo version 3 board has some problems.
the onboard raid ide controller clashes irq's with the onboard usb
the only way i found to get the raid controller to even run its bios was to disable the onboard usb.
what a joke, on board irq clash's
i seemed to have no problems with anything else and once the usb was dissabled i had a nice machine.
2 30gb hdds on raid SCREAM. its sweet
384mb ram on a 1.2ghz t-birds<bit o speed on that.
tv/fm tuner.
yeah!
well if anyone has any idea how to avoid the irq clashes on this board i would be grateful to know!
 
I have not used a MSI board before but most Bios allow you to select between IRQ controlled by System or O/S. Check to see what it is set to.

Only the insane prosper.
Only those who prosper can judge what is sane.
 
ive searched the bios 100%
i even took my comp in to my place of work (computer store) and none of my fellows there could find anything useful!
its a pain in the butt

k7t turbo - disable onboard usb to use onboard raid. HAHAHA!
