Hi guys, The RAID0 caching removal didn't go well at all :( I disabled caching and reset the bios and changed from RAID to ACHI. Windows tried to load but failed and went into a recovery mode. But it didn't recover and windows did not load :( Anyway, I've since done a clean install on my new...

Gotta love that line. Yeah I was going to remove all drives except my C drive and boot from there after I make changes in BIOS My fear is this. That even though I make changes in the BIOS when windows is restarted it will try to load a RAID driver and screw up windows starting. Any thoughts?

Hikari Kisugi Thanks for the info. I know how to get into the BIOS. I just need more info on how to disable RAID in BIOS and to be sure that the PC will boot afterwards Thanks Euge

Grimley. Thanks for all your help. I'm in the process of getting rid of a lot of junk on the C drive PRVere. What monitor are you using? I'm aware that IPS is better than TN for photo work. But I don't know the reason why. What GPU would you recommend that would show 2560 colours. As I'm not a...

I'm using a Dell 2407WFP-HC monitor. I probably have it 5 or 6 years at this stage. I like the Dell its calibrated and the colour rendition is good as in what I see on the screen is what I get when I print on my Epson Pro3800. But I am open to recommendations on a new monitor. Ideally I would...

Thanks for all the advice. I should point out I have 16Gig of RAM already. Would adding another 16 be beneficial. If so do Overclockers still do the same Corsair RAM or can you recommend compatible Corsair RAM. Which Crucial 512GB SSD do you recommend What GHOST software should I get to make an...
