• configuring RAID and IDE settings in the BIOS
    2 replies, posted
So my dad reset the cmos on my lan party ut nf4 motherboard and I get a blue screen when boot up, and windows starts. He's at work right now but he told me that I had to enable RAID in the bios menu and enable IDE or something like that. I dont know if you guys can help, or even know what I'm talking about (All of this is going right over my head) but I'd appreciate the help.
Don't enable RAID in bios unless you have many disks and only use one. RAID is meant to backup data by writing to several identical disks at once, so if a harddisk fails there is another still working with the same data. IDE stands for integrated development environment. It has nothing to do with bios. Is your computer working fine? Bios on default settings should be all you need.
