View Full Version : Promise SATA adaptor stalling bootup

My Promise SATA300 TX4 adaptor hangs the bootup process while detecting drives.

If I don't connect the drive, the card reports "Bios not installed" and then let's the PC complete the bootup, and the PC still works.

I took it in and the techs showed me that it worked fine on their PC.

So my question is what is corrupted and how can I repair it?

I did find drivers for the bios and Windows, but I can't seem to update either.

What should I do?

Try updating the card's firmware/bios/software

There's also a compatibility list too, check if ur mobo is on there too
