Hi,
I have tryed your solution :
(with the same order boot)
- Bios ata & sata raid are shown
- I am hable to boot an operating system from ide "3" and "4"
-> SCSI BIOS is not shown
I have contacted Gigabyte France; they told me that they never used this
main board with "such a card"
As well, as they do not have this scsi card, they would like I send this one
with the main board to their office.
Will see, if tey can solve my problem.
Thanks for your help Jeff
