Using 3rd party Raid Controller

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi!
I have a problem with my Fatality Gaming K6 Z370 board. I installed a 3rd party raid controller card (http://www.delock.de/produkt/89395/merkmale.html%3FsetLanguage=en). The problem is that I cannot access the boot menu of the controller. CTRL + M on startup should give access to it. In the bios 3rd party controllers is enabled. Instead of entering the marvell bios the pc simply boots.
What can I do?

	Just to be clear. The Raid Controller works and is accessable via the Marvell Storage Utility when Windows is booted. Still the question remains why the board does not allow to enter the bios of the controller. All connected harddirves are visible.

	Hi, I have an older SATA/RAID pcie card and will try it in a newer z370 motherboard this weekend and let you know if I can access it's BIOS. It is also Marvel 9xxx chipset based.

	Update: After changing a few motherboard BIOS items on the Advanced -> BOOT page I am able to get into Marvell BIOS: Full screen LOGO = Enabled, AddOn ROM display = Enabled In CSM -> Launch Storage OpROM = Legacy Only (very important) I was able to get into Marvell BIOS using Ctrl+M by doing a system restart and holding Ctrl while tapping M. I did not see the pre Marvell BIOS screen saying to hit Ctrl+M but my monitor is slow to wake up (it goes to sleep during a restart). Hope this helps.
