    Install lsi 9211-8i messed up System

    Running memtest now. Will let you know. Also, Zalman VE200 TOTAL FAIL. Won't start the selection menu to pick the iso. just sits there staring at me. The one time where it's needed and it can't do it's job.

    Install lsi 9211-8i messed up System

    Alright 1) Sorry, they're all M1015, my mistake. 2) The silent boot ones are ok, just webBIOS disabled for faster booting. 3) Trying to reinstall windows onto intel RST Raid0. That shows up at boot. BUT, Windows install is now asking for drivers it can't find for the OS install. Wants to...

    Install lsi 9211-8i messed up System

    UPDATE2 Tried 5 9211-8i's. Only 2 where the HBA actually starts up, the others don't initialize. BIOS shows they are physically there. But, the 2 that init, when I go to their BIOS, I see screen but no keyboard response. Just sits there. I also turned off both storage controllers on mobo...

    Install lsi 9211-8i messed up System

    Now one of the SSD's in the Intel RST Raid0 is reporting error. Have to rebuild the volume and reimage (hopefully that works). Still no idea why the lsi HBA did what it did. Also the config utility in the HBA doesn't respond to the keyboard so can't make any changes there (if that will make a...

    Cheap Ethernet --> stereo streaming audio player

    Yes I found this out. My pi musicbox still isn't working. The solution provided using kernel_wolfson.img gives you an old problem of no ethernet/usb. May have worked with previous pi B, but not working with my B+ & 'Cirrus' card - wolfson was just bought out and the B+ compatible card is...

    Cheap Ethernet --> stereo streaming audio player

    How much did you pay for the DAC? My total was $75 all in. Would your option be much cheaper?

    Cheap Ethernet --> stereo streaming audio player

    I like that. Creative. But it's still a DAC of unknown quality. They sound nice on headphones. I already ordered the Pi, but I'll keep this in mind. Maybe for something like portable audio outside.

    Cheap Ethernet --> stereo streaming audio player

    Nope. I'm back to considering evt & BlueLineSwinger answer. Spent a bunch of time last night trying to get info about this. The amazon iplay2 thing looks dodgy, very little info. Lots of Chinese mass-stuff that looks like dealextreme quality out there. And the sound quality. No info on that...

    Cheap Ethernet --> stereo streaming audio player

    That won't work, HDMI is digital, converters cost more than $10. That's what I was looking for. I still like the idea but there's a pretty cheap option on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LAIEE4E/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2LM6ZPY06LT1N . Only question is codecs, I...

    Cheap Ethernet --> stereo streaming audio player

    - It's an older Technics with analog RCA jacks and KEF speakers. Not the highest end but pretty up there. - I would guess CD quality. My hunch if some people are complaining about the pi then chances are we will hear it - Living room - wanted to keep budget low because it doesn't seem right to...

    Cheap Ethernet --> stereo streaming audio player

    neat idea but I'm reading poor audio quality for either B or B+ http://www.crazy-audio.com/2014/07/sound-quality-of-the-raspberry-pi-b/
