 |  dell PERC5I hello everyone, I recently bought a second hand perc5 controller that until now i didnt used at all. So i hooked it up to my computer (P5W64WSmobo) and made a big VD of 8 hd's. everything went okay until i got a BSOD when installing vista64 bit or server2003. I thought it was the controller so i took it out,trying to install again..having extra bsods all the time i figured out it was one of my adata ddr2 sticks who caused the problem. So i removed them,installed the perc5 again and on boot i got an error saying the memory on the controller is broken. I get crazy and reboot and nothing happens at all anymore..no post. So i remove the memory on the controller and use a ddr2 stick i had laying around and the systems posts,but no more sign of the controller (i think this is because i dont used the correct mem voor the controller). i think the memory on the controller is broken,how do i replace it?where can i get it?dell support is **** because i can't locate the service sticker on the controller  .Or do you guys think the entire controller is f***ed? Any advice what went wrong? grtz

 | Dell machines and hardware can be picky about memory, so I would try with another memory stick, dell approved if possible
