Hi Yasser

“P5W64 have 4 pci-e slots. nr1 blue and nr 2 are reserved by graphics card (I have quadro fx 4500)
When I put Multibridge PRO card in slot 3, mainboard not started( on power on Balck Screen and Silence)
When i put Multibridge PRO card in slot 4 everything is ok system loading but Multibridge PRO card hasn’t been found.(I’am trying to find new hardware but still nothing happens)”
Then I upgrade my bios from version number 0701 to 0903 and connect new Multibridge PRO v2 to slot nr 3(because in that configurations it has PCI-e x4(go to asus website an read motherboard manual)) and everything working.

I think the problem was in old Multibridge Pro slot connecting card because in that version of MB the card looking different, but remember it’s only my opinion.

I don’t know nothing about chipset X38 this motherboard has Northbridge Intel 975X Southbridge Intel ICH7R and PCI-E IDT89HA0324 and 8 x serial ATA I/II(4 on ICH7R and 3+1 on Marvell 88SE6145) and RAID bulid on MARVELL working.:)

Hi
Thank you for your response.

P5W64 have 4 pci-e slots. nr1 blue and nr 2 are reserved by graphics card (I have quadro fx 4500)
When I put Multibridge PRO card in slot 3, mainboard not started( on power on Balck Screen and Silence)
When i put Multibridge PRO card in slot 4 everything is ok system loading but Multibridge PRO card hasn’t been found.(I’am trying to find new hardware but still nothing happens)
When I try to connect Multibridge PRO via USB, system found 1 new hardware and install it but there is still nothing heppens. I can’t run Multibridge PRO
In mainboard manual I see the slots runs at (1)x8 (2)x8 (3)x4 (4)x8 mode or at (1)x16 (2)x0 (3)x4 (4)x0 mode.

In bios setting i found only 5 things about pci-e:
PEG buffer Lenght(use AUTO) otions:(auto,long,short)
Link Latlency (use Auto) options:(auto,slow,normal)
PEG Root Control (use Auto) options:(auto,disable,enable)
PEG Link Mode (use Auto) options:(auto,slow,normal,fast,faster)
Slot Power (use Auto) options:(auto,light,normal,fast,faster)
that’s all.

Please help if you have any suggestions.
