kubalaTF said:Hey yall, I've finnaly gotten my EP-4PDA2+ going, and I did have difficulty getting it to like my SATA HD. But it's going now, kindof. It doesn't want to play sound, which I suppose isn't really a problem because I've got a sound card on the way. But is it really required? And do I need to get the new BIOS, because when I was looking through the BIOS to enable SATA the manual AND the discription on the left said I'd probably want to use the enhanced (I think it said enhanced, I'm pretty sure whatever it was started with an e) setting, but then it wasn't an option. I finally got winXP goin and plan on putting 2 other drives (IDE maxtors) in RAID 0, I sure hope that won't be a problem. And that's where I stand for right now.
Congrats kubala.
You should definitely get the latest bios from Epox. The updated bios should take care of any issues you're having, and once the bios is flashed (very easy), then you don't have to worry about it again.
As for the onboard audio, you have to turn it on or off in the bios. I've never actually used mine as I put my Audigy 2 ZS in from the start. When you put in your soundcard, turn off the onboard audio.
What cpu and memory are you running on the board?
