Can the P67A-GD65 boot without a graphic card?

Hi,
I just bought a P67A-GD65 with a Core i7 2600k and I want to operate the board without a
graphic card (as a server running Linux). To my surprise, the machine does not boot
with I remove the graphic card. I know it does not boot because I do not hear any
noise coming from the hard drive, nor do I see any SATA LED blinking. When I plug
in my ATI card, all is well.
I looked around in the UEFI BIOS and could not find any option to turn on/off.
The board is running FW 1.40.
Is this a known limitation?

Quote
No ? There is absolutly no way to get the card to boot and without a grafic card ? That is pretty bad isnt it ? :(
The mainboard was never intended to be used as a server as the OP had inquired about. With newer chipsets that have on-board graphics in the CPU, then it might be easy to configure. Not sure about this, but it may be possible to put a fake card or device in to trick it thinking it has a graphics card, but I have no information about it.

Help Configuring Raid 1 & Raid 5 on the P67A-GD65 (B3) motherboard

I just purchased the P67A-GD65 (B3) motherboard for a custom system and have a few questions in regards to setting up RAID.
I have the following HDs
2x 1TB
3x 3TB
I would like to setup RAID 1 with the two 1TB drivers and RADI 5 with the three 3TB drivers. I connected the two 1TB drives to ports 7&8 so it would be using the Marvell SE9128 and the three 3TB drives to ports 1, 2,3 to use the Intel P67 (B3) PCH. The documentation says that SATA ports 1-6 support RAID 0/1/5/10 and SATA port 7-8 support RAID 0/1.
The two 1TB in RAID 1 would be my boot drives (going to run VMWARE ESXi with multiple VMs) and the three 3TB RAID 5 drives are going to be my storage.
I was under the understanding that you could use both the Intel P67 (B3) PCH and the Marvell SE9128 at the same time but it looks like I can only configure one or the other. If I have neither of the two setup I can hit CTRL + I and get to Intel or CTRL + M to get to Marvell but when I set one of them up I can’t boot into the other to setup my second RAID.
At the end of the day I bought this system to run ESXi 5.0 with multiple VMs with a shared storage area. If I can’t utilize both controllers then what’s the point of having two on the motherboard? I made sure in the BIOS settings I enabled RAID for the HDs.
If anyone has configured their systems like this please let me know how.
NOTE: As others have mentioned if you put in all your memory at one time then the system will go into a continuous reboot state. You should only put in one and then the others. Right now I have two 4GB sticks in and will add the others once I figure out is going on with the RAID.

Please stop flashing the same version all over again, before something goes wrong.
It's great to have that info now... is it posted anywhere on the website?

Please make sure that the memory frequency is manually set to DDR3-1333, the Command Rate to 2T and the memory voltage to 1.575V. Then retest with all modules.
I changed the frequency to DDR-1333 and Voltage but I don't know how to change the Command Rate or where it is located? Any help?
Also,
I'm still having problems getting the system to recognize the Marvell RAID config when I boot with the VMWare ESXi 5.0 CD and try to select where I want to install... When I go into the Marvell settings the system it shows that I have two dirves in RAID 1 Config:
PD 0: ST31000528AS -> PORT ID = 0; PD ID = 0; Type = SATA PD; Status = Configured; Size 953869MD; Feature Support = NCQ 3G 48Bits; Current Speed = 3G
PD 8: ST31000528AS -> PORT ID = 1; PD ID = 8; Type = SATA PD; Status = Configured; Size 953869MD; Feature Support = NCQ 3G 48Bits; Current Speed = 3G
under the HBA 0: Marvell 0 settings it says the following:
VENDOR ID: 1B4B
DEVICE ID: 91A3
REVISION ID: B1
BIOS VERSION: 1.0.0.1027
FIRMWARE VERSION: 2.1.2.1505
PCIe Speed Rate: 5.0Gbps
Configure SATA as: IDE Mode -> In the BIOS I have the settings to RAID
Not sure if it matters but here's how I have the Intel Raid setup...
RAID Volumes
ID = 0; NAME = Storage; LEVEL = RAID5(Parity); STRIP = 64KB; SIZE = 5.4TB; STATUS = Normal (it's in green); BOOTABLE = Yes
Physical Devices:
Port Device Mod Ser Size Type/Status(Vol ID)
0 Hitachi blah blah 2.7TB Member Disk (0)
1 Hitachi blah blah 2.7TB Member Disk (0)
2 Hitachi blah blah 2.7TB Member Disk (0)
Any Thoughts? I'm trying to boot from the two 1TB drivers setup in the Marvell Raid 1 Config and the Raid5 through the Intel for all my storage needs.
Thanks again for helping out.

Can the MBP 13 boot into earlier versions of the OS via firewire?

Apologies if this is addressed elsewhere, but I can't find a definite answer.
I have the current v. of the MBP 13 (just purchased this week.) I would like to use it to boot into 10.4.x on an external drive via firewire. I've tried every which way, and it just doesn't seem to want to do it.
(I can select the disk/system in the start up disk pane, but the result is a stalled blank screen and the operation has to be aborted. The external disk also appears when starting with the option key, but when I click on it, the cursor freezes.)
This used to work perfectly with my old intel white macbook. It appears that the new MBPs can't boot into previous OSs. Is that the case? I just want to make sure it's not something I'm doing wrong.
(The reason I want to do it is that my admittedly old Adobe stuff (Photoshop/Dreamweaver/etc) won't run with 10.6 and I can't afford to upgrade it at the moment. I can still use those programs with the old macbook but it is quite literally crumbling to pieces on my lap despite layers and layers of duct tape and it's not gonna last long.)
So: can the MPB 13 boot into earlier OSs or not? Anybody know?

Is that the case?
Yes.

Please help :) Error Ray-tracing on the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5.0.

Hi All, if anyone can help me fix this error I will be most aprreciative.
I get this error when I open After Effects.
Ray-tracing on the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5.0 or later. For now, ray tracing will use the CPU.
After installing CUDA 5.0 or later, restart your computer.

I have this warning come up, too. And when I close it, the program crashes. I can't get it to work without it.
I use Photoshop CC and that works fine.
I'm running Windows 8.1(more info below). I've tried to read for solutions in forums but none of them provide any.
Some have said they figured it out but don't say how, another said he re-installed Windows?
Any help is appreciated!

When you create an Apple ID for any of these stores, you will need to provide a payment method for purchases. The available payment methods vary by country, but typically you can use:
Credit cards
iTunes Cards
iTunes Store Gift Certificates
Content Codes
Store credit (including Allowance Account balances)
ClickandBuy
PayPal
In countries where the iTunes Store only sells apps, the accepted payment methods are Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Other payment types such as gift cards, store credit, monthly allowances, ClickandBuy, and PayPal are not accepted. Depending on your App Store country, prices may be listed in your local currency, US Dollars, or Euros.

How can I access free apps without a credit card?

I'm trying to create an Apple ID for some elderly folks that want something as simple as checking the weather and potentially other free apps but at no point can I create an account without a credit card, an idea that's very bad for folks that are not at all technically savvy.
Various guides suggest there's a 'none' option for payment type if you attempt to create the account with the need to obtain a free app in the app store but this option does not exist, we only have three credit card options. If I change to USA, I have more options like Paypal but none of them is 'none'. Also tried the UK, still didn't work.
Can anyone advise me as to how we can 'review terms' without entering a credit card? It's difficult for me to explain they can't do as much as they want to do with their new $400+ purchase because they need to use their credit card for authorization.

Edit : your last reply appeared as I was typing this.
I've just tried the steps and they worked ok for me, I've got the 'none' option for a new account e.g.
These are the steps that I used to give people (free apps are now labelled as 'Get') : Re: i want to create an appleid and i dont have credit card. the instruction that you discribe at the top is not working…, and that is what I've just used.
If you update the primary email address on the account that you've already created then you should be able to try using to create another account - you can change the primary email address by logging into it via http://appleid.apple.com, or by logging in via the Store > View Account on a computer's iTunes. You can create a 'throw-away' email account to put on the existing account via http://gmail.com or http://hotmail.com
I'd be surprised if the info that you've just been given about gift cards or credit cards is correct, iTunes gift cards aren't available in a lot of countries (and they are country-specific) and a lot of people don't have credit cards - they'd effectively be preventing a lot of people form having accounts.

Can i use my iphone without a sim card as a ipod

can i use my iphone without a sim card as a ipod?

The SIM card is not required to use an iPhone as an iPod or to be used for anything else besides cell phone related services.
For a no longer activated iPhone, the no longer activated SIM card that was used with the iPhone when it was activated must be inserted in the iPhone in order to install an iOS update and for no other reason.

@Limnos - that doesn't work anymore. There is no NONE option. I've been at it for hours trying to set up my daughter's account. I've tried creating and verifying an appleID on the web, on her touch...everything. Every single time you get to the stupid Touch, it wants to walk you through the verification of the account and it demands payment (even for their suggested apple Remote method listed in the KB).

Please help ... Ray-tracing on the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5.0 or later?

Hi there,
I'm have a bit of an issue with After Effects and Premiere.
After Effects:
Keeps asking for Ray-tracing on the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5.0
Premiere crashes unexpectedly
Can someone please help
Much-ly appreciate

Hi there,
Sorry took a while to get back to you guys. I have been having some issues with Premiere and Aftereffects CC.
I recently bought an Apple Pro CTO - Intel Xeon E5 3.7 GHZ Quad-Core with 10MB of L3 Cache, 32GB (4x 8gb) 1866MHZ DDR3 ECC DDR3 RAM, 1TB PCIE-BASED Flash storage, DUAL AMD FIREPRO D500 GPUS with 3GB of GDDR5 VRAM, DUAL Gigabit NIC, 802.11AC, bluetooth, 6x thunderbolt2 ports, MAC OS X.
Issue 1 - Aftereffects CC
Ray-tracing o the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5.0
Issue 2 - Premiere CC
Warp Stabiliser wasn't stabilising correctly and now doesn't work at all in premiere CC. I even tried to link to aftereffects but it still doesn't stabilise the shots correctly.
I use to operate PC before with Adobe CS6 and I didn't get any issue stabilising.
If you guys can point me what's the best way to get it to work correctly that would be magic.
Look forward to hear from you
Regards,
Jean-Eddy Moutou
