Abit NF7-S2GNnforce2 SATA (mapped as IDE ports 3+4) - Compatible this also only works with edited mtkflash. and actually, except for 3112/3114 chipsets, I believe almost all sata controllers will work fine with a hexedited mtkflash. Are you sure this works?, I think this is a SI3112A based board according to this http://www.logan.eclipse.co.uk/abit_nf7_(s)_v2_0.htmdidnt think that worked? |

Oh I see the chip os ONBOARD where as its the PCI list I was looking at... amazing that the same chip works onboard but not on a PCI card :-o
Who was it who reported the Onboard working?, how many verified reports?. I've managed to buy a board and will pick it up but if its speculation and not confirmed I might just skip picking ithe board up.

I'm not sure why my other post on this got deleted, I'm just trying to get some help for me and alot of other NF4 chipset users. Ok, I am able to flash the drive with the files, that part is ok. However, I cannot get windows to boot into XP with the 0800. It just hangs at the XP loading screen. If I power off the 360 XP boots. I have tried booting pc first then powering on 360 and I get nothing. I have tried everything I know to do and I'm not a noob. Someone please help us or point us in the right direction. I have tried everything that is in the forums and no luck. Many thanks in advance.

I have Gigabyte GA-81945P iDNA-Series - LGA775 for intel Pent D/4
Intel 945P express chipset, dont know exact details about the 4 onboard sata...
but the flash works like a champ just use /sata after r or w in the flash command if you get an error of cant determine flash type

search here fro driver issues i believe nforce chipsets should use standard drivers or something i have a via chipset sata card that i had to hex edit mtk flash to make work, then when windows tried to boot it hung as splash screen then if i did get into windows it disabled the sata card with error "this device failed to start cose 10". i updated to latest via drivers and all worked good... i hear is same for nforce... something about standard drivers instead of nvidia ones, but u have to search, just telling you the hearsay that i seen. here is my hex edited mtflash to use with via vt6421 sata card for use on the sata master channel 0 if anyone needs it, http://rapidshare.de/files/20676748/MTKFLASHvia.zip.htmlstill took me alot of trial and error because you cant disable the onboard bios from trying to recognize the drive, so i had o hot swap with the 360 hd but freezing at spash screen (the XP logo b4 windows boots) is driver issues with 0800 FW. at leasts on mine it was |

Are you saying nforce boards should use the official nforce drivers or just the standard ones included in xp? |

Can the SIL 3112 PCI cards be used to extract the key from the drive?

Is anyone working on getting the PCI cards (other than 3112/3114 which we know can't flash) to work by hex editing MTKFLASH? I attempted to modify the program and add the CompUSA card SiL3512 to try and see if it could then detect the drive... but I am not having much luck. I have never done hex editing before so I may have made an error, here's what I did: 1. msinfo32>Components>Storage>SCSI Name Silicon Image SiI 3512 SATALink Controller
Manufacturer Silicon Image
Status OK
PNP Device ID PCI\VEN_1095&DEV_3512&SUBSYS_35121095&REV_01\4&3B1D9AB8&0&3840
I/O Port 0x0000A000-0x0000BFFF
I/O Port 0x0000A400-0x0000A403
I/O Port 0x0000A800-0x0000A807
I/O Port 0x0000AC00-0x0000AC03
I/O Port 0x0000B000-0x0000B00F
Memory Address 0xE7010000-0xE70101FF
IRQ Channel IRQ 16
Driver c:\windows\system32\drivers\si3112.sys (1, 2, 0, 57, 55.88 KB (57,216 bytes), 5/17/2006 1:17 AM)
2. Took the relevant values (used the same locations as the other posts on XBH, see bold values above) and "swapped"... 1095 -> 95 10
3512 -> 12 35
A000 -> 00 A0
A800 -> 00 A8
3. Then inserted that data at B3D6 along with the device id 0000B3D6 : 95 10 12 35 00 A0 00 A8 00 53 69 4C 33 35 31 32 : •..5. .¨.SiL3512
I am still having the same known problem, MTKFLASH will not detect the drive. The problem has to do with the card or the card+mtkflash, not my motherboard or boot process, because when using the Adaptec SiL3112 card, it can be detected, but obvioulsy cannot read/write. Can someone double check my hex editing and let me know if I did everything correctly. Also, do any modifications need to be made to the MTKFLASH.TYP file? And... how do you determine what address (i.e. B3D6) to insert at? |

There are no pci satas on the market that will work.

Yes, Arakon posted it as working on May 15th at 3:11:34PM in the "TS-H943 firmware dump by software" thread, page 8. That is all I know. This list was compiled from various threads on this board. Can someone double check my hex editing and let me know if I did everything correctly. Also, do any modifications need to be made to the MTKFLASH.TYP file? And... how do you determine what address (i.e. B3D6) to insert at? Can someone please help dkenzan? I am hoping this card works, as it is very readily available... |

one i am using is on very cheap pci card,
has 2 sata 150 and 1 ata133 port in it also supports RAID, and was no way to disable raid bios,
card is red no name i can find
card chokes on drive... doesent detect it on card bios, but mtkflash works and is seen in windows
but yes, IS a pci card and with the hex edited mtkflash works kick ass
have to hot swap but hey whatever works
the hex edit i did uses the port on rear of the card i am using (ch0)
and i heard it was standard XP drivers not nvidia ones, but once again, that is hearsay, i dont have any nforce anything to try and find out,
hope something i did actually helps out here....
