How do you "release" the "Other" line?

What are you trying to do here?

I have added the Sil 5.3.14 BIOS to the Expert 4/06BTA BIOS. I am now making reference to the stuff asked in Post #26 and #27. The "order" of the things in BIOS. I didn't know if it mattered because the PCI C was in the middle, then it gets moved to the end. I was gonna release all the ones on the bottom and get PCI C back to it's original spot, then add the lower stuff back. I can release all the stuff except the bottom listing that says "Other...". When I try to remove it, I get some message about a syntax error?!

 

-Thanks

I wouldn't bother with releasing them as it doesn't matter what order they are in.

 

It will still work the same.

This bios is working fine on my rig, nfii lpb.

 

I had to redo the drive from scratch though.

Windows saw it and did'tn notice a thign worng with it, however vm2 does.

Dos does'nt though, in general(I would think, vm2 is in dos).

 

After redoing the entier drive over, vm2 works.

 

I gained -2% less cpu usage over the raid 10 bios'es.

I modded the raid 5 drivers to works for this controller too, works ok.

The sil 3114 drivers just suck @ss basically, all of them do(Including the raid5 drivers).

 

In reality, this controller is just crap.

It's ok to get by with I guess.

That's what IU have to do, I will have to deal with the thing.

It's slowly getting better on my end, the more I mod it that is.

 

I have no write speed issues really, just read speed issues.

Read speed sucks, write speed is fine.

Cpu usage, after messing around with the driver(experimenting), is way way to much(4% right now).

It can go as high as 12% at 2ghz, that's just stupid...(if the driver is setup diffrently)

 

Oh yeah, it seems as if these controllers work in sataII mode.

I forgot what else I was going to say, I have to get...
