    I use onboard video, no probs whatsoever, even with mega low memory timings. What is a fair price to ask for a used (12 day old) A64 3200+ Venice s939 that will do 2.6Ghz?

    Jay surely you mean SATA RAID? And not just SATA? I run 2 SATA drives in my box and no special drivers are necessary. If it is a SATA raid, you need to throw these onto a floppy: http://biostar-usa.com/mbdownloads.asp?model=tforce+6100-939 the ones at bottom.
