Ep 4vkmi User Manual
I have a clients computer that I repaired with a MB EPOX EP-4VKMI P4M800 478, the original problem was simple. His computer would boot up but was slow as hell. After testing every component. I isolated it to the motherboard.Well, I bought the client a EP-4VKMI cause it had decent ratings for a mini-atx (should have gone Asus for $30 more I think now) and things seemed to go fine until I plugged the USB 2 into the motherboard and fried a diode (or some thing that lit up) which stopped it from turning on VGA (still turned on. Just no video)Motherboard 2 arrived and things got setup nice and fine (power on tests are all fine) though as reported by one person if I turned off the onboard video (with a video card in the PCI/AGP slot) it refuses to turn on the video (man I'm being honest when I say. I don't like VIA any more and had my reservations from the get go) and I had to reset the bios to get it to normal.Alright back on problem (cause this has nothing to do with it in all reality) the motherboard refuses on the SATA drive the customer had (maxtor SATA 3.0 200 gb) to detect it.
Ep 4vkmi driver installation manager was reported as very satisfying by a large percentage of our reporters, so it is recommended to download and install. MEMOREX 510LV1 DRIVER DOWNLOAD Alun Cox Level 3 Expert Answers.
It won't detect my brand new Seagate 300 gb. And after trying my Raptor 10k 75 gb. It detects it fine. And (even tries too bootup windows)I did some reading at maxtor trying to find if there's a jumper setting.
There site says there's none. I had a look around for a new BIOS (but it has the most up to date one)(Also just for the record. I hooked this client up to a SATA add-on card to this very box.
His box boots up fine via the card and detects fine. Though it's possible his original cable = bad/quirky have tried other cables of course)So the question is am I screwed with this motherboard or not? - View image here. Problem:Second Generation Serial ATA hard drives are not detected when connected to a VIA or SIS Serial ATA controller.
These First Generation Serial ATA controllers include the following chipsets:. VT8237. VT8237R. VT6420. VT6421L. SIS760. SIS964Cause:Our Second Generation Serial ATA hard drives use autospeed negotiation.
This enables our Second Generation Serial ATA hard drives to automatically detect the motherboard data transfer rate, making it backward compatible with First Generation Serial ATA data transfer rates. However, because this technology is so new, some older First Generation Serial ATA controllers are unable to support autospeed negotiation and cannot recognize the drive.

These were my first SATA drives. As for the OP, if he gave us a model number of the drive, we may be able to locate the drive jumper setting, he only gave us 'Maxtor SATA 3.0 200Gb', which of course there is no SATA 3.0, which only makes it harder to search for.- View image here.
