Yes, I have an identical video card in the other system. I will give that a try when I get the chance. I have to assemble the computers at the inlaws as they are supposed to be christmas presents for the kids. Thanks for the help. Any other possible problems? Keith

Hooking up drives in Raid 0

I am going to be setting up two IBM 30gb drives on an Iwill KK266R. Do both drives go on one raid IDE connector (one as master and one as slave) or do you put one drive per raid IDE connector (both set as master)? Thanks for the help.:confused:
