That was my thought as well. It is also the response I got from Supermicro tech Support.
So far this has been a struggle. I have tried the 4.0.0.1045 drivers provided by supermicro several times, each time with varied success (or failure). Once I actualy got server to install and boot properly. However it invariably crashed without chance of recovery while performing the first batch of Windows updates.
Since then I have tried several times. and the system has invariably frozen somewhere in the "Getting Files ready for Installation (XX%) the percentage is never the same. Some Drive 0 is lit up, sometimes drive 3... its not consistent. I am trying to use RAID 5 with 4 WD SE 2GB drives but so far no luck.
I am starting wonder if I need to run WD Align, but the support files say it shouldn't be necessary.
Incidentally, on the assumption that it is a driver issue, I went back to the 3.8.0.1113 driver listed on supermicros site and tried them, just in case it was a driver version issue. Still no luck. It still froze at 40% with Drive 0 lit up.
BIOS? RAID? MB? a Drive? or cable? Not sure where the problem lies at this point. This is getting frustrating. This project is at a standstill untill i can get this sorted out.
