    Re: Cannot activate X fast ram

    Usually with a 32-bit operating system, windows will only show up to 3.2GB of available memory.
    This might be part of the problem when trying to install Xfast ram with a 32-bit o/s.

    Why are you connecting your ssd's to sata2 ports?

      You may have better luck using the Intel SATA III ports, which is what I always use for a RAID 0 volume with SSDs. If you created your RAID volume on the SATA II ports, I suggest deleting that volume, clearing the UEFI/BIOS, and starting over. I moved a RAID 0 volume (after OS installation) to the SATA II ports, and Windows decided I did something funky and wanted me to reactivate Windows.

      It sounds like you are in RAID mode in the UEFI, and created your RAID volume before OS installation, if that was your intent, correct? I've done that several times without any issues, but not on a X79 system. Also, do not have any other drives, besides a DVD drive, connected to the PC or Windows will do weird things with the MBR, as in put it on another drive. The DVD drive should be on an Intel SATA II port.
