Cannot uninstall SCSI/RAID Host Controller - 12/28/04 07:22 AM

I installed some dvd burning software a while back and it tried to install a scsi/raid host controller. When it did, I got a BSOD and the computer restarted. Upon restarting it asked to install the device... Doing so gives me a BSOD.

In the device manager I have:

Adaptec ACI-7850 PCI SCSI Controller
X Scsi/raid host controller
Silicon image siI 3512 SATALink Controller
Universal SCSI Controller.

The X is the one with an X in it that does not function.

Now, I cannot uninstall the device or install the device. both give me BSOD. Now when I try to install my blue tooth device I just got, it tells me that the scsi/raid deal has been suspended and needs to be uninstalled. If I do that, I get a bsod.

I cant get this thing to go away.
How can I?

No dice. booting from the recovery console gives me a BSOD.

No. This problem originally happened about 4 months back.

Furthermore, soemtimes when I try to install soem programs, I get bsod. Looks like I should just reformat.

Its either a messed up install of windows or this crappy gigabyte 939 mobo is not giving enough voltage to the corsair xms ram. frown

The mobo did this the whole time I had it and after reading things on the net it looked like the ram/mobo combination I had wasnt the best setup. I should have RMAed it a long time ago...
I'll probibly just sell it and get another board. smirk
