Question: I'm using a SATA HDD. My computer was running fine. But one day I turn on my computer, it keeps restarting itself after Windows® Logo page (at startup). Do you have any idea what possibility causes this?(2006/7/21) Answer: This may be that your system was installed in IDE (or non-RAID) mode. But now it is set to RAID (AHCI) Mode. Please try to set it back to the IDE (non-RAID) mode in the BIOS>Advanced>IDE Configuration.
Here are some examples, please refer to the user manual for details.
VIA® and Nvidia chipset:
Please set SATA Operation Mode to [non-RAID]
Intel® Chipset:
Please set Configure SATA as [IDE]
775Twins-HDTV (R2.0) or P4Twins-HDTV:
Please set ATA Combination Mode to [Enable]
