I have read several of your replies to other posters, Ricer46, and I'm afraid I must
say that you seldom choose to invest much effort reading their questions in full
before replying. Several times now I've seen the original poster write something
like "I tried X and I tried Y, but it didn't work", whereupon you'd express some
snarkiness or condescension and write in response something like "if you had any
brains, you would have tried X or Y" -- in other words, you'd criticize them for
not trying exactly what they've *already* tried without success!
You repeat your common pattern here with your reply (above) to my OP.
At one point in my OP, I wrote: "So next I did the same exact thing for System B:
Installed all the drivers XP would need to run on a RAID array..."
What evidence can you cite or logical reason can you give for blatantly assuming
(entirely falsely and unjustifiably) that I did NOT obtain "the drivers XP would
need to run on a RAID array" PRECISELY from "the motherboard's web page"? Because
that's just exactly what I did -- in both cases!
Note also that later in my OP, I stated: "The ASUS [the second system's motherboard
manufacturer] web sites haven't helped me much regarding Marvell's 88SE614x, although
it would appear to an average person as if there's quite a bit of Marvell RAID drivers
and support on my Asus P5WDG2 WS Pro mobo's download page..."
Once again, I had already made it quite clear that I had ALREADY obtained "the driver's
[sic] from the motherboard's web page, not the chipset supplier".
Finally, you wrote in your reply that: "I'm really surprised that it even worked
once". That statement, sir or madam, is quite the non sequitur. From your words,
it follows logically that the "surprise" you spoke of can only refer to your quite
erroneous assumption that I had NOT obtained the necessary RAID drivers from that
system's (Intel) motherboard page! Yet, if you had actually read my OP with any
care, you could never have arrived at the bizarre conclusion that I had NOT done
exactly that.
Having seen this happen to others you interact with, Ricer46, I respectfully ask
that you do not respond to ANY of my posts or threads in the future. I think it
would be best if we simply never interact again.
Thank you,
Spection
