ok i am building a new system and when it boots up it takes for ever, to check the hdd's and **** then to raid, then when it boots te windows cd it says that is is getting ready to set up but it just hangs after that. any ideas
 
Disable RAID checking in your BIOS. If you're not using RAID, you don't need to have it enabled.

nope it still hangs, any other ideas,

the hardware is, wd 40gb 7200rpm x2
amd 2500+
1.5gb ddr 333
ati AIW 7500
300w psu
24x cd rom
 
Just a thought......if the channel the hard drive is connected to is for example IDE3 or 4, you should load an ATA hard drive controller from the mobo disc, otherwise it would be auto detected.......unless your bios auto settings are incorrect.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
