Top 10 Most-Requested FAQs

	Question	Date
1	I plug in 4GB of memory into my P8SAA board but Windows XP only shows 3GB of memory. Everything works fine but why does Windows shows only 3GB of memory?	01/15/05
2	Does the SATA RAID in the P4SCI, P4SCT, P4SCT+, P4SCT+II support the Linux operating system?	03/08/04
3	I have installed 4GB of memory on my E7505 board, but in Windows under "My Computer" and the in the task manager I only see 3GB?	06/04/03
4	I can’t get my SATA drivers to load on my H8DCE board for Windows 2003 server STD. Is there something I’m doing wrong? Am I downloading the right driver?	12/09/05
5	What is the difference between SuperDoctor III and IPMI?	11/09/03
6	I just got my SuperServer 7043P-8R. I have completed installing the processors, memory and hard drives. When the Power is applied, the system BIOS displays and everything on it looks good but there is very loud alarm buzzer ON and I thought the power supply had gone bad. But all the LED’s on power supply are lit green which I believe means the Power Supply is good. Any suggestion on what may be causing the alarm trigger ON and how I can turn OFF the alarm?	03/26/04
7	Do you have any SATA RAID management tool to monitor the RAID status under RedHat 9.0?	04/11/04
8	I saw your P4SCT+ and P4SCT+II all support 6 SATA drives through the on-chip SATA controller and on-board Marvell 4 ports SATA controller. I am interested in such a product, but I wonder if I can use all 6 SATA drives at the same time?	03/06/04
9	On the P4SCE, I am installing matching PC3200 DDR-400 512MB RAM modules. If I install modules in any single-channel configuration, the machine boots properly; if I install any dual-channel configuration, the machine generates error beeps. I suspect the beeps indicate a memory error (two long beeps), but the board generates more than two beeps (I've counted up to five, before I lost interest); the beeps are about 5 seconds long, separated by about 3 seconds. Is there a problem with my motherboard?	09/05/03
10	I have one P4SCi board. The onboard Gb LANs use 2 different chips "82541" and "82547". Can I still setup LAN fail-over/teaming on them? How?	05/15/04
