Hardware Operation Manual Problems setting up Newly installed memory fails during Self-Test or is not detected. Possible Cause: The Memory DDR DIMM module may not be properly seated or may not be supported by RAID SYSTEM. Fix: Re-sit the memory module in the socket and retry. If it continues to fail try moving it to the other memory socket. - Page 30 Hardware Operation Manual LCD display shows OWOOOS Possible Cause: “W” means “warning” - there are many bad sectors on your HDD. Fix: Change hard drives. Invalid NVRAM message appears Possible Cause: NVRAM error or malfunction. Fix: Save settings and restart the controller. If the problem persists, contact your vendor. Data loss for Windows 2000 during system shutdown Possible Cause: RAID controller is in a process of a built-in host and some data is still in cache buffer during system shutdown.
