    Lightning strike yields failed raid when trying to boot

    Well, the machine is back up and running as it should. I managed to install the Intel RST GUI to monitor the array in the future. However, before rebooting, I rolled back the driver to what came preinstalled with win10. I read too many horror stories of the upgraded driver causing a...

    Lightning strike yields failed raid when trying to boot

    It is a P6T Deluxe V2. The machine is currently up and running, just with higher than normal disk usage (currently around 30%). I didn't want to do anything with it until the rebuild was complete for fear that it would need to start over from scratch. Is it possible to rebuild it without...

    Lightning strike yields failed raid when trying to boot

    Well, the machine is up and running again. I haven't replaced the faulty drive yet as it has been doing a rebuild and I didn't want to disturb it. Picked up a 3TB Mybook and backing up all the data I'd rather not loose. Still haven't determined what is doing to rebuild. I don't think it is...

    Lightning strike yields failed raid when trying to boot

    Understood, and I believe it is in the process of rebuilding. I'm even using the computer now to right this. That being said, it is slow. However, the question is what program is performing the rebuild? Windows itself? Surely not. Nothing stands out in Task Manager. Also, I can't locate...

    Lightning strike yields failed raid when trying to boot

    I've been running my current machine for some time now. Even upgraded from win7 to 10 without issues...suprizingly. Consists of an Asus MB, core i7 920, 12 gigs of ram, and 5 WD blue 500gig drives running in raid 5 on the ICH10R. The raid is partitioned to 3 volumes, one for OS, second for...

    1366 x58 Xeon Enthusiast overclocks club

    Thanks for all of the replies. Sorry I've been MIA for a few days, but life keeps me busy sometimes with the swing shifts. I'm definitely interested in doing this now. Nothing like breathing a little life in and older machine. Did that chip already sell? Didn't see in in FS/FT.

    1366 x58 Xeon Enthusiast overclocks club

    Been away for quite some time and come back to see this. Seems intriguing. I'm currently running an i7 920 with a P6T Deluxe V2 (latest BIOS 1202) and 12 gigs (3x4) in one of my main machines. Best OC I could ever get out of it is 3.4 with a 200 BCLK and x17 multiplier. Would dropping around...

    Help me bridge two networks with wifi

    I can't say enough about the ubiquity stuff myself. I've had great luck with a pair of nanostation loco M2's over the last year...never rebooted them once...if only I could say the same for some of the Microtik stuff I have to monitor. My main connection to a fiber link about a mile away is...

    Looking for information on running fiber

    That's the problem, lol. I was originally pricing out 50/125 multimode and came across it for roughly $150 per thousand feet with ST connectors on both ends. The problem is it was indoor rated only. Finding duplex multimode burial rated cable jumped the price from around $300 for the run to...

    Looking for information on running fiber

    Well, I think I'm going to try and re-purpose my current radios. I'll pull the Ubiquiti Airgrid off of my house and move it to the morton building along with my load balance router. From there I can use the TP-Link 5.8 radios to send the signal down to my house and I'll leave the ubquiti...

    Looking for information on running fiber

    After further research, I'm not sure that fiber would be very cost effective. For duplex, multi-mode in-ground rated cable it appears I'm looking at around $1500. I must say that's quite a bit more than I wanted to spend. I had no idea the cost jump from indoor to burial would be so high...

    Looking for information on running fiber

    First, a short explanation of what I'm currently running and why. I live out in the country. As such the typical high bandwidth/low latency connections are unavailable to me including cable, dsl, FIOS, etc. Satellite is available but latency makes it unusable. I'm currently running a long...

    PowerColor 7870 PCS+ Myst edition issue

    I was under the impression that flashing the BIOS came with it some warranty concerns. I'd rather not create any problems there in case the card does happen to be defective. What's the consensus on this? As for the driver. GPU-z lists it as 9.10.0.0 / Win 7 64, driver package version as...

    PowerColor 7870 PCS+ Myst edition issue

    OK, I downloaded the newest GPU-z. According to it the BIOS version of my card is: 015.028.000.000.00000 (113-C4740100-100) It appears to be the .028 revision. Temps don't seem to be an issue. The GPU idles at 49-50C and peaks at 72C under load...Tested with Bioshock at Ultra settings...

    PowerColor 7870 PCS+ Myst edition issue

    I have an old version of gpu-z, I'll download an update and give it a go when I get the chance. Didn't get on the computer at all yesterday...life keeps you busy I guess. I'll check back in when I'm able to do some more diagnosing.
