Topic: JMicron JMB 363

Using a GigaByte GA-965G-DS3 Mobo with a JMicron JMB 363 RAID with 2 x Hitachi SATAII 160g HD's (mirrored)

Had to make a diskette for the F6 thing.

Just a heads up.

Had a major problem finding a decent driver, the CD was useless.

If you need the driver(s) please let me know, I have a zip file, these work.

FYI:  I have problems with modern Mobo's and floppy drives. With the F6 thing I find it better to set the BIOS
to NO floppy and load the F6 driver from a USB floppy.

Sometimes the inbuilt floppy will see the driver the first time (F6) and then when the format is done
and the drivers load the "F6" will not read from the inbuilt floppy, less problem with the USB floppy.

Hi Bigbrit

apparently, Jmicron drivers are a PITA.
do you care to go to testing forum, we can do your test version together.

The answer was 42?

Re: JMicron JMB 363

Went back to a "New out of the box XP Pro SP2B" and that worked OK with the F6.

There must be a reference in the Mass Storage section that causes a:

Setup was unable to copy: jraid.sys

Tried different versions of the driver etc with the 7.04 DVD, all had same problem. The basic Windows disk worked OK.

Would post in the Testing Forum but I do not have rights to create a topic.

Re: JMicron JMB 363

this is a known bug at microsoft

if the winnt.sif contains the line

OemPreinstall = "Yes"

the F6 drivers will not work
