    Areca ARC-1230 Help needed...

    Anyone got ARC-1230 or similar here?

    I can't get my one to work... RAID card BIOS won't show up during boot at all - my mobo seems to think that there is nothing plugged into PCI-E slot...

    Card itself gives one beep and the LED marked as D1 starts flashing, PC continues to boot normally.

    No unusual activity.

    I've taken it to work today and Dell Optiplex 360 wont POST at all when the card is plugged in...


    Any ideas?
