But oh boy getting into bios to activate the mobo usb was difficult. PS/2 mouse and keyboard do not work..... I first had to reset the bios and boot without hdd attached. With hdd it was for me impossible to get into the bios. But this is another subject.

I tried the mobo usb instead of silverstone with the short clairixa to intona and that works without errors and ticks. So for my setup also the Silverstone is part of the issue.

But I still prefer the Silverstone.... so back to cheap cable between pc and intona.

Gerard,

Is this originally with RDC ?

All I recognize from your story is that here too it can or will happen that I can not do anything with the BIOS etc. once I have been connected by RDC *ONLY* and then plug in the keuboard and all. Monitor then does not work as well. But a reboot with all stuff plugged in, solves it.
I don't think this is exactly your situation, but ...

Hi Gerard,

I'm afraid I don't understand the question.
Are you referring to the normal Windows boot menu ? ... that should just work. But you only have two seconds to access it (that time out is settable in the XXHighEnd Boot Menu - bottom-left).
Pressing down-arrow regularly when the system is booting, should give you the access (in harmless fashion).

Gerard,

There is nothing wrong which such a thing, BUT you are completely 100% fully on your own.
If it does not work right out of the box (take 50% on that) then I can not help and nobody will be able to (unless by sheer coincidence someone uses the same).

Real compatibility with such a thing is usually far away and thus it won't do what a normal Windows OS would and which is the only thing I (XXHighEnd) obviously can depend on.

On a side note it would be a good thing if someone would be able to find something cheap (like 20 euros) which works for everybody. And then still :
For me it can't work because the largest HDDs at this moment are 8TB (I think) and that is not sufficient for me.
I still have ~10 HDDs mounted in my music server (no, not all of 8TB - haha).

Hi Gerard,

Maybe. But because it actually is XXHighEnd, maybe not ?
For it being a "phenomenon" you should be right.
