HI
I have the following configuration:
Asus P4P800-E Deluxe i865PE
Pentium4 Prescott 3000MHz, 1MB,
Asus A9600XT/TD/128M, Radeon 9600XT
2x Maxtor +9 SATA, 160GB
Dane-Elec DDR3200, 512 MB ECC ram
After a normal shutdown win xp prof. will not start up. Counting of ram, and identifying the disks works fine, but xp start up screen is not shown, only a small cursor flashing in the top right corner of the screen.
Both discs are also visible in the BIOS.
Discs are configured as sata, RAID 0, one partition.
I have installed xp on a third disc (on the IDE interface), pressed F6 for installation of the intel SATA driver during win xp start up. It works fine, the new installation sees my SATA disks as my D drive on the new xp installation, but I cannot access the sata discs. I get “D: not accessible” or something like that.
I also tried recoveryconsole fixmbr with no luck. Chkdsk says that the disks have one or more major faults.
Any hints on how I can save my data are welcome. (Needless to say that I have NOT backed-up for almost a year)
