[Athlon64] 'No disks detected' when installing WinXP64bit on striped SATA RAID

I've been using my RS480M2 board with a dual boot config (WinXP Pro 32bit and WinXP Pro 64bit) using a Maxtor Diamond Plus 80G SATA hard drive configured as an IDE/ATA. I set the controller as "IDE Controller" in the bios. Everything has been working just fine and I must say that I really do notice a big performance improvement on the WinXP64bit compared to the WinXP32bit.
I then purchased another Maxtor 80G SATA with the intention of setting up a SATA RAID 0 (striping) config to see if I will get more performance gain. So I changed the controller to "SATA Raid Controller" in the bios. Then I used the Sil3112A GUI (by pressing F4) to configure my 2 SATA hard drives as RAID 0. I tried installing WinXP Pro 64bit but the SATA RAID drivers I've tried just do not work. The Windows setup would indicate that there are no disks detected. I already tried the 32bit SATA RAID driver, the one at Silicon Image site, a few ones at PlanetAMD64, etc. No luck!!!
So I just installed WinXP Pro 32bit using the provided Sil3112 SATA RAID driver floppy diskette that came with my board. And it installed without any problems. All is well. So the problem is: WHERE THE HELL CAN I GET A SATA RAID DRIVER FOR WINXP64BIT???
To anyone who has the solution to my problem, kindly email the driver (or link) at [email protected]
Thanks.

Sorry for the late reply. I finally got to install Windows XP Pro 64bit onto my RS480M2-IL configured as SATA RAID 0 (striping) with 2 80G DiamondPlus SATA hard drives. The sata drive that worked is the one on this link:

The computer doesnt take Mac OS X disk 2 when installing tiger

the computer doesnt take Mac OS X disk 2 when installing tiger

Is it showing error message during GarageBand install?
If so, I had this type of problem, and solved it by restating computer in Safe Mode (to enter Safe Mode you should hold "Shift" button on start-up while Apple logo appears).
Only trouble for me - my MacBook display was so dim in Safe Mode, that was a problem to see anything on the screen. But still, there are only few buttons to click during 2nd disk setup and I guess that "dark safe mode screen" could be only Mac laptop problem.

Insufficient disk space when installing Weblogic 9.2MP3 on Solaris 9 or 10

Insufficient disk space when installing Weblogic 923 on Solaris 9 or 10 using bin file installer :
bash-2.05$ ./server923_solaris32.bin -mode=console
** Insufficient disk space! The installer requires:
** 132MB for the BEA Home at /mnt/home2/i817284/sol_usphlcsx0003/wl92 and
** 664MB temporary work space at /var/tmp/aaa1baaJn.
** There is only 0MB available at /mnt/home2.
There are more than enough (several gigs) of free space in all those directories as verified by df -k...
Solution for jar file doesn't work, obviously ;)

bumping this up in hopes of an answer....
it appears that the jar installer works fine, the problem is with .bin installers only.....
in install docs found proposed solution of "use df compatible with used posix" - that must be a joke, right ??
we're supposed to replace df that comes with OS with some version that works with posix used by the installer ?? Really ?@?@?

Underestimating disk space when installing applications

Dear all,
I am attempting to intall a windows-native application upon the bootcamp partition of my hard drive, which was allocated 20GB. I have 12GB of free space remaining, as reported when I click "properties" on my C: drive. The installation wizard for this program informs mee that I do not have enough hard disk space to install the program, which requires 200MB, and I cannot complete the installation without convincing this wizard that there is, in fact, sufficient disk space. Any insight into why the wizard might underestimate the space available? Thanks in advance.

Not a very common one... a biotechnology application called Primer Express. The manufacturers of this program have not been very helpful.

Trojan threat detected when installing Rescue & Recovery

I am performing a fresh install of Win7 on a T61p. I downloaded the 'Thinkpad Rescue and Recovery' installer (tvtvrnr43_1027fi.exe) from Lenovo's download site and ran it to began installing it. After some unpacking and working through the setup wizard a bit AVG detected the following as a threat:
File: C:\preboot\utils\rnrdbgtool.exe
Threat: Trojan horse Agent_r.BKV
Since I know this package came direct from Lenovo and since R&R is likely doing things that LOOK like a trojan, I have to believe AVG is throwing a false positive here. But before I proceed I wanted to ask anyone else if they have encountered this before? Is it possible that the R&R installer is actually infected with a virus??
Thanks,
Rob

The answer to this is No... not even your AVG suspects that. A trojan is much different then a Virus. An example of a trojan would be a computer program that claims to do one thing, but really does something different. A virus is a generic definition of a type of malware that infects and reproduces and spreads.
Any program that can make major changes to a computer could easily be detected as a false positive by anti-virus software, and AVG is one of the worse when it comes to false detections.
My advice is to look it up on AVG's database and see what it is they claim to have found. Odds are it's a generic classification or a heuristic definition, meaning their software is basically making a wild guess that it might not be what it claims to be.
If you're overly concerned about this you can update your AVG definitions each day until it's removed from the database. I'd also report it to AVG, they can't rule it out until someone reports it. Odds are it's been reported already, but it's best to check and do your part and improving a freeware product.
I doubt lenovo can do anything about it anyway. If the file was infected with a virus, that may be a different story, but most servers will detect a change in the file and anything infected will be removed very quickly. With a trojan definiton, it would be like trying to prove a negative. For example, if you say you're a doctor, but I say you're a plumber, you can easily prove you are a doctor, but you can't so easily prove you're NOT a plumber, and in this case AVG probably isn't even saying what type of program it thinks this really is, so that makes it infintiely harder to prove... so the ball is in AVG's court, then need to fix it, or provide something specific for lenovo to contest or fix.

No Hard Disks found when installing

Hi,
Because I have a new PC that has a motherboard that has a kind of RAID controller onboard that is not (yet) certified by Sun, I've been trying to install Solaris 8 on a somewhat older PC. It's a P133 with 96 MB RAM and a 2.5 GB HD (IDE).
Altough the Configuration Assistant finds my HD and CD ROM (and there are no conflicting devices), when the Web Start Solaris Installer looks for a hard disk, he reports: "No hard disks found on the system. Please see your documentation."
I've been trying to change parameters in the BIOS of my PC: set hard disk mode from LBA to CHS or Auto, but I keep getting the same result. What is also funny is that I can issue the 'format' command after the installer stopped. There I can use 'fdisk' and I can create x86boot and Solaris partitons as I like. (I cannot format them though.)
What 's going wrong?
Best regards,
Dominiek

Did you try: destroying the "x86, Solaris" pair, re-booting, running installer, recreating "x86, Solaris" and re-starting the installer with "/usr/sbin/c0d0_isntall"? I have to do that EVERY time...
HOWEVER !!
Your drive might have a drive manufacturer LBA scheme installed - which may not be compatible with your BIOS LBA scheme (docs can be found on www.westerndigital.com). Frequent disk errros is one symptom.
You should have the install disk for your particular hard-drive. It will indicate whether a drive-manufacturer LBA is installed. You BIOS setting is of course a separate issue.
1) If you have an existing partition: * do not alter the LBA scheme *
2) In general, partitions with an Operatitng system installed when LBA was enable must have the exact same LBA (by BIOS manufacturer, BIOS version, or hard-disk manufacturer) SUPPLIED AT EVERY BOOT. Some OS's ignore the BIOS's LBA offering.
3) The LBA-written data is NON-REVERSIBLE. LBA written data is, in general, PER-PARTITION. You must do a complete backup, format, and restore to change you LBA scheme.
4) If you don't know your complete LBA status - you should be concerned. In general, move away from LBA when the opportunity arises.
You might contact your motherboard manufacturer upon the matter of obtaining a BIOS upgrade. Also: what brand HD do you have?
Hope that help,
john

"No disk detected" when trying to restore Server Backup Image to a virtual hard disk

hello,
I have a server 2012 running hyper-v
I've created a new VHD and started the process of a windows restore.
The restore process picks up the backup drive and can see the backup that i want to restore.
The backup is of a Windows installation taken from a phsyical server. My intention is to restore to virtual.
When i get to this page:
I cannot get the option to not be greyed out. However, if i click exclude disks it shows me the virtual disk.
If i press to continue i get this:
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Simon,
"How is best to do this on a live environment?"
Not sure I understood " live environment" correctly , but Disk2vhd can run on a system that’s online.

Problems installing XP-32 in SATA RAID disk

Hi all.
I've a new PC, it is Core2Duo E8500/P45 Paltinum / 4Gb OCZ dual channel / two hd's WD 750Gb SATAII 16Mb.
I've set both hd's in RAID mode, I've created the RAID using Ctrl+I and following the instructions, all succesufully, when I tried to install XP-SP2 (booting from a CD) I pressed F6 when ask, and then I pressed "S" to specify the driver, at this point all right, BUT !!
When the installation ask for insert the driver diskette, I do it, I press enter, and nothing change...the installation is stuck at the same point, this is asking for the driver diskette. (green led of the floppy trun on and then off)
I've double check that the floppy drive is ok, I tried with the original MSI CD drivers for create the diskette, I've also tried downloading the Intel ICH10R drivers from the MSI site for create the diskette, with no luck.
So, which could be the problem ??? After all day trying, I've my mind fried at this time, and I fell very dissapointed.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Alberto

Hi BOOTKILLER !!
Great !!! I remake the RAID 0 with full capacity, and now windows reports only one disk, but with full capacity, 1.36Tb.
You were a big help for me.
Thank you so much & Have a nice weekend !!
Regards.
Alberto.
Cool You have done well 1.36TB, i was close
Quote from: BOSSKILLER on 15-November-08, 00:39:12
Nop, it should be seem all capacity at once storage. e.g. one drive with approx. 1.4TB space.

Not enough disk space to install sims 2 from app store?

I've seen lots of threads resolving the problem of there not being enough disk space when installing sims by a CD Disk, but I'm trying to download it from the app store so none of them apply.
I have 12 GB of space free on my macbook and the application only needs 7.52 GB.
Ideas?
I keep getting 'not enough disk space available'.
I can't open it from the applications folder rather than the Disk because I haven't been allowed to buy/instal it yet.

I have cleared 17 GB of hard disk space and 11 GB of memory space.
The requirements online when installed say 10 GB of hard disk and 4 GB of memory.
I bought my Mac last year so I don't think my system is too old.
Ideas now?
When I get above 17 GB it instals but at the end of the hour long installation it again tells me it failed to download, not mentioning space .

WinXP PRO install issue with SATA RAID floppy on P45D3

Hello,
My objective is to set up 2 RAID volumes (one in RAID0 + one in RAID1) using Intel RAID Matrix Manager.
After having enabled RAID mode on BIOS, created the 2 RAID volumes and pressed F6 at the beginning of WinXP PRO installation without any problem, I am stuck when one file from Intel SATA RAID driver floppy needs to be written on the disk.
The problem appears after having confirmed the partition I want to install WinXP on. I got the following message:
"Cannot write iaStor.sys" . And I have to cancel the installation.
I do not know where this file has to be written ... Additionally, this file was perfectly read (and written somewhere) just after having pressed "S" and provided the floppy during the first phase of WinXP installation.
Any suggestion to help me ?
Thanks
My config (partial):
- P45 D3 Platinum with E8500 Dual Core
- 2G DDR3
- 2x 500G SATA2 HDD

How did you solved this ?
I Googled and found this page which was very useful (the blue text is a link; you can click on it).
In fact I already knew how to do it using nLite (which I normally use), but now I tried their F6 floppy advice for educational purposes and that worked as well!
Key is that the files have to be present twice, on different locations on the floppy...

5th generation ipod not detected by my windows xp. works fine on other pc. performed necessary steps to remove and reinstall itunes but having same issue. is there a driver i can download to pc then direct to that specific location when installing?

5th generation ipod not detected by my windows xp. works fine on other pc. performed necessary steps to remove and reinstall itunes but having same issue. is there a driver i can download to pc then direct to that specific location when installing?

I have a similar issue - my iPod nano connects and is visible in Device Manager yet invisible in My Computer and iTunes. I've tried everything I can possibly think of to try and solve this myself, all in vain.
Mine is a nano 4G. I've been using it for quite some time without the slightest problem. I have been using WINAMP instead of iTunes to manage my darling nano.
Then, one fine day I bought a new computer and the nano would not show up in My Computer, though the nano display shows "Do not disconnect". On my old computer it worked (and still works) absolutely fine with win XP as well as with win7 (the later I currently use on my new/problematic computer, which I bought last summer and that's how long I've had this problem).
Of course, after several first attempts I gave up and installed iTunes. I've tried using the Apple support article "iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows":
- reset
- fully charged,
- cable works fine on two other computers
- in normal or disk mode makes no difference
- tried to find anything useful in the diagnostics mode
- reinstalled iTunes several different times since then to the latest version
- I've unplugged every other USB device except for my mouse and keyboard and tried several different USB ports on my motherboard (USB 3.0 and conventional), as well as trying different USB- related options in my BIOS.
- I've never used any Mac with this ipod
- I've tried fiddling with the win7 Services by stopping and restarting them and of course
- uninstalling the iPod drivers in Device Manager. After such an uninstall the ipod would automatically be recognised and "ready for use", i.e. being invisible in My Computer.
- Attempted to find any possible third-party conflict with msconfig or the possibility that my ipod is being confused for a network drive (for which I've disconnected my HDD, leaving only my SSD with the OS).
Sometimes, iTunes would note that iPod service (or something, can't remember exactly) failed to install properly and asked to try and repair it. I would click YES! and voila - no change! The ipod would rarely show up in iTunes on my problematic computer like this:
iTunes would warn me that the nano would need restoring so I would try and do it on my haunted machine upon which iTunes would freeze like you seen in the picture.
Despite this, I've updated and restored the nano on my father's computer to the latest version without any problems. This though, did not solve my problem in any way.
I can load music to my nano through my old computer (which for me is a real pain and hassle) and the gadget works normally in terms of its disconnected functionality.
I've taken my nano to the local service for repair and they said it was fine. Mercifully, they didn't charge for the diagnostics service (gee, thanks for not ripping me off!).
Here are two screengrabs from my Device Manager
and Devices and Printers screens on my comp:
That is my sad story as far as I can remember. It's most likely something with the drivers or something along those lines though I'm out of ideas at this point.
If you think you have any idea PLEASR HELP, I'M DESPERATE!
