• Removal of XPS 720 Raid 0

  Hello

  I just bought (and waiting for delivery of) a machine XPS 720 and I will be eager to delete the Raid 0 among the readers. I guess I would need to do the first action I think I have to reinstall the operating system later.

  Could someone advise me how to do this? I think that once I have reinstall from the recovery disk that the Raid 0 will be just reimplementation, I don't have any experience with Raid any so I apologize if this is a silly question.

  
  

• No sound from my XPS 720!

  System:

  XPS 720

  Quad Core Q6600, 2.4 GHZ

  Windows Vista Premium 32-bit SP2

  4 GB OF RAM

  XFI soundcard

  nVidia 9800GT (nine yesterday)

  WD 160 GB HDD

  SP2208WFP monitor

  AS501 Flat panel stereo speakers

  and much more

  The problems started 2 weeks ago when my 8800GT video card quit on me.  I finally replaced it yesterday.  I now can't not all sounds on my computer, nada, nothing, nowhere in any way.  And I don't think I tried everthing to understand.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  In no particular order... 1 restored the system to the factory settings.

  2 disconnected and reconnected my speaker (it's an all in one model attached to the bottom of my screen, I use the earphones especially

  so I do not need good speakers)

  3 uninstalled, and reinstalled the sound card. (material)

  4 uninstalled the old and reinstalled the latest drivers from the disc and soundblaster web site. (software)

  5 I checked all forums, all 65 943million 297thousand 477 billion web sites (maybe OK I exaggerate a little bit).

  In any case no sound, no wav, no windows startup sounds, no music, no games, no internet.

  6 I went into Device Manager, audio video and game controllers to check if the drivers are recognized... and they are.  the device is functioning without conflicts.

  7 I went to control panel, sounds,reading , and although there are 4 options work to choose that I selected the Creative SB X - Fi (of work) speakers as my default.

  (The other 3 options are "SPDIF out Creative SB X - Fi (work)": "1 Live online!) Virtual cam (work)":"digital output (SPDIF) SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC (work) device.

  8 I went into Control Panel, sound, recording , and there are also 4 options work.  I have selected Microphone Array monitor Webcam (SP2208WFP) (work) because my microphone is built into my monitor.

  I've had this computer for 16 months with very little problem.  Video card all of a sudden the mouse and card now his acting upward.  The above settings are correct because I put them?  Is there something in the bios that I might have to change.  I've never been to the BIOS and I think it's a very scary place.lol

  In any case, any other suggestions would be appreciated.

• XPS 720, video card and sound card upgrades?

  Greetings-

  A friend gave me his old Dell XPS 720, which I updated to Win7-32.  The upgrade went fine--too easy in fact - and now I'm sorting on all other smaller issues.

  I need a recommendation for a new graphics card and a new sound card.  The only thing I use this box is to maintain a website via Adobe CS4 Dreamworks, with the other tools in the suite and surf the net.  No game, no rendering heavy, etc.

  What I want-

  -Decent color - graphics but no fan if possible.  The map in this area is now an INVIDIA GTS of the G-Force-250 - and the fan noise is terrible.  My needs are quite easy - is there a map smaller, quieter that I can put on this case in order to eliminate the a fan (which seems to be the highest fan in the Pack)?

  Sound card - open what it is as long as it fits and works with this box and Win7-32.

  Thanks for your help/advice-

  -Sean

  The integrated SigmaTel 9227 audio system should be good for your use. But any PCI sound card purchased locally would work or you could get an its PCIe x 1 card. Here's what we delivered =
  CT602 PCI Sound Blaster
  F7710 PCI Sound Blaster X - Fi
  WW202 PCI Sound Blaster X - Fi XtremeMusic

  You should check newegg for price and photos for the PCIe x 16 video cards. This link is sorted by lowest price to highest. None of them work so you have at least a 750w power supply. When you have found a video on the site map, I would look for it locally.

• Audio not working Dell XPS 720 H2C with Windows 7

  Buy a Dell XPS 720 H2C with XP in 2008. Last week made a new installation to upgrade to Windows 7 (made by Micro Center). Have tried to get help through Dell... a lost... cause the last time I buy Dell. The audio card is a card OEM, "Driver Creative Labs Sound Blaster X - Fi XtremeMusic (D). Everything else seems to work very well. Diagnosis of device driver shows that everything is OK.

  Any ideas where to go from here?

  Answer was not helpful, but I appreciate the effort. Found the second site was a bit Advanced for me but looked interesting enough to sue later. Finally chased the problem to map its; called Dell and ordered a replacement. Let's see if that fixes the problem.

• Presentation of matrix raid NTFS without formatting?

  Hi all

  I just installed ESXi 4.1 on a server that has a RAID of 4 TB, formatted NTFS.

  The raid card is an Areca ARC - 1260ML. I got it working after working with the console!

  However, I don't want to lose all my data on the RAID array and it is simply a lot of backup. How can I make this ESXi matrix RAID of the guest OS?

  Thank you very much

  To be honest, I don't know!

  My guess is, you will not be able to mount it to a virtual machine at all. However, if you are able to do this work somehow, I'd wait the corruption of data.

  Hope you have a good backup in place

• Bad clusters on XPS 720

  Hello

  I'm not entirely sure if I am faced with a hard drive problem or if something might happen, so I thought I would start here.  A few months ago, I bought an XPS 720 (sheet copied below).  His summer work as a gem until a few nights ago.  As I was game (World of Warcraft, doubt it's important), I had a crash of the game.  Trying to restart, I have been informed that the data of the game files were corrupt and that he had to revert to a previous version.  Just enough, only download the previous version data files are also damaged.

  I then tried to reinstall from my original disks in a different directory on the drive, even to download Windows XP SP 3, which must be plugged away for a bit, but invariably report a corrupted data file.  It seems that any file of significant size runs into this problem when I try to load on the drive, no matter from what source.

  I also run CHKDSK/Scandisk what bad clusters reveals that he reports in 5 different places, supposedly lightens the, but appears again in repeated CHKDSK/Scandisk runs.  Also, just in case, I've updated my antivirus, ran a complete system scan who come clean.  I caught more later/more big S & D of Spybot, Adaware and ProcessList.  The only questionable content found were a few tracking cookies.

  I'm kind of at my wit's end and I was wondering if I was just a butt hard drive should I call Dell to replace or what.  Your ideas and your tips are very much appreciated.

• What is the best configuration of matrix Raid for Photoshop?

  I plan to go to a matrix Raid the Scractch level 2 X Solid State 90 GB discs, both also stroage level 3 X Hitachi 2 TB HARD drive.

  What configurations of matrix Raid should I use for each?

  I'd go with RAID 0 for Scratch disks, as you need no redundancy for safety. For your image files, you'LL want redundancy.

  Well written for video editing with PrPro, this ARTICLEwill give you general information.

  Good luck

• Factory restore / Boot Order RAID 0 array?

  I have a 'mobile 'current enforcement office (laptop) XP Pro SP2 with dual hard drives in a RAID 0 array.  For various reasons, I want to put the machine in its factory out-of-the-box condition using discs of recovery/restoration of the manufacturer (essentially the application of Norton Ghost). I did my due diligence regarding the restoration of the machine and 'reconstruction' from there, but the machine does not start on boot from the restore disc CD.  I do not venture into the BIOS often... the existing boot priority order is as follows:

  1. USB FDC:

  2 PCISCSI: FTTX Ary1

  3 IDEO_M: QSI CD-RW/DVD-ROM

  4 IDEO_S: _NEC DVD + /-RW

  5. PCI LAN:

  6.

  7 etc.

  I don't have a built-in floppy drive. I want the machine to start from #3 (my first optical drive).  In the order of precedence of the BIOS Boot, I simply move #3 to the #1 or #2 position?  Will be other items then simply drop into their existing order?

  I do not know how does RAID 0 of the table is on the boot order selection, but I don't want to spoil anything.  I appreciate your help and your expertise.

  Hi Aravaipa,

  · On what CD drive you insert the disc?

  · The operating system was preinstalled on the computer?

  · If so, what the number and model of the computer?

  · If it was custom build provide the serial number and model of the motherboard?

  · Have you have saved data on the computer?

  I suggest you to back up data before performing the procedure below:

  1. If the computer is preinstalled on RAID 0 configuration then you might need to break the Raid by changing the variable speed drive (ATA controller) to Normal or IDE

  2. as you have two CD/make ROM DVD readers like the first and the second in the boot sequence and make the method of trial and error to see what DVD Rom detects the recovery disk

  Note: Change to the BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk. You can contact the manufacturer of the computer for better assistance.

• Problems of creation of matrix Raid

  Hello

  someone encountered problems with Western Digital (WD1000FYPS) discs, I just bought a NSS6000 for our lab and when configuring the RAID I appear to get player disconnects, i.e. the sycronisation process goes well for about 2 to 2.5 hours then one disk disconnects and then appears as a new drive.

  I tried this with 4 x disks in RAID 5, 3 x disks in RAID 5 + spare and 4 x disks in RAID 10.  Disconnect appears completely random in what drive it is.

  any help would be appreciated, has soon

  BH

  I apologized to be your hard drive is on the supported list. Try to upgrade the firmware of the NSS6000 may be damaged.

• Removing a hard drive of matrix Raid 5

  Hello

  I have a Dell Server 2008 R1 server. The server came installed with 3 hard disks from 146 GB hot-swapable. I added two additional 146 GB drives. I used Dell OpenManage Server Administrator to add additional hard drives to the table. Now, one of the hard drives is a yellow slow flashing and creating a fatal error. If I remove the drive the problem goes away, but the server still shows the disc under the table and storage being 544,5 GB (which is OK with a RAID 5).  I don't have a spare drive if I want to remove the drive of the table until I can get another hard drive. Does anyone know how to remove the disc of the table?

  Any help would be appreciated.

• R610 Perc 6 / i Can I have matrix Raid and independent labels?

  My R610 with a Perc 6 / I can take 6 physical disks.  I want to create a raid 1 with the first two discs, then install 3 drive more that BONES can see and use in a storage space.  However, I can't figure out how.

  I have my setting up a raid and windows installed and I have the other 3 drives inserted, but Windows does not see them.  Maybe that's not possible, but I wanted to ask if anyone else had any ideas on how to make this work.

  Thank you.

  PERC 6 is not compatible no RAID, so if you want to use these disks separately, you must configure each as a single drive RAID 0.

• How to install VMworkstation with matrix RAID?

  This procedure seems to consist of several steps. Installation of VMware; mounting disks; creating virtual disks; installation driver for RAID controller that supports VMware. Windows is confused as to volumes/drive letters, so that the file operations are difficult, sometimes impossible. What is the sequencing of these operations? Specifically, at what point are RAID drivers installed? I'll be able to install VMware, mount disks and to create virtual disks before installing RAID drivers? Otherwise doesn't seem like the configuration would be supported; the RAID card will not compatible system configuration to work with.

  Any practical advice? Unfortunately I can't back up now, so it would be good to get this one right. ;-}

  .. . If you go to http://3ware.com/support/download.aspand then select the 9650SE RAID controller, you will notice that there is a specific driver of VMware.

  This driver is for VMware ESX (i), no VMware Workstation.  ESX installs on bare metal, which explains the existence of the RAID for ESX driver.

  VMware Workstation is installed as an application on a host system, so this isn't the host operating system needs the RAID driver installed, VMware Workstation.
