Just a quick update. Sager called me back and their is not update for the promise RAID controller so no more than 120GB hard drives. Promise refers me to OEM/Sager for support. I took back the 160GB drive and purchased a 120GB and I can...
I am getting out of my techinacal abilities here, but maybe you can help. I have tried to e-mail promise for information but they have not responded. I believe that the bios of the controler is not seeing more than 137gb. It shows up...
An added piece of info: If I put in my old 60 gig disk with xp on it in drive one, I can see the 160 gig drive in XP as D drive. Actually I originally had two 60 gig drives no RAID then went to two 100 no raid all using XP. This...

My computer has been in for extended warenty repair going on three weeks now. Waiting for parts. Because of the artifacting issue I am using my old Dell and it will run more software than this $4,000.00 clunker because of the graphics...
I have the problem and it was getting worse so I loaded the ATI tool and under-clocked at removed 3D detecting and of course have got rid of the problem but no 3D and it’s not what I paid for. My old Dell will run more software than this...
I had the same problem and in fact at 15' the signal was low. I changed the wire and it is much better and has changed to good signal. If I put in the USB wireless adaptor I used in my old notebook I get a full signal. This is about the...
