I currently run a Dell XPS 410 with a RAID 1 array and also have an iPhone. When I installed the then current iTunes/Quicktime on my Dell last summer when the iPhone was released, I was able to register the iPhone and it worked a little while before crashing the system and screwing up my RAID array. I have not had the courage to try things again since Intel released the new version of their Matrix Storage Manager software and the newer versions of iTunes/Quicktime. I currently sync the iPhone on my Sony VAIO laptop without issues but would like to be able to use my desktop.
Anybody had luck with the newer versions of these software on their Vista machines running RAID arrays? |
I'm so glad someone finally replied!
I read on the Apple forums that someone tried to install the latest Intel Matrix manger, and it fixed the problem, BUT unfortunately I cannot install the latest version because for some reason my computer chipset is not supported ! I won't allow me to install, and says something like "the specific hardware is not found, installation aborting" .... my computer is only 1 yr old too!
Yes, my RAID crashed about 15-20 times (trying to fix this compatability problem), takes forever to rebuild.
