Fedora 10 X86_64 Install on an existing RAID0 ICH10.

It’s not clean and it definitely is not pretty. I was able to get F9 64 bit installed on my Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3r ICH10r based system on an existing “FakeRAID”. I initially installed XP, used the floppy driver method and created a 2X500G WDC SATA II RAID0 array. Next I partitioned it and installed Vista Ultra… Continue reading Fedora 10 X86_64 Install on an existing RAID0 ICH10.

I ultimately had to uninstall… Continue reading Revisor

Processors

I frequently get asked which processor is best. There is no quick and easy answer to that question.  Factors such as budget, what you plan to use the computer for,  overall performance, existing system, all play a part.  If you only browse the web and check email, you would be ill advised to purchase a… Continue reading Processors
