    Hi sygnus21 :)

    I don't know where to go to disable it in the BIOS
    Can you give me a detailed map, please?
    This is the screen shot you provided :)



    It's the secondary Sata Controller. Scroll down to where it says enable, hit enter and choose disable. NOTE...once you do this, any drives on that controller won't be seen so I suggest you move them the the main (Intel) controller.

    Marvell Controller bothering messages "No array" "No HDD" etc.


    First of all many thanks again to Tony919 from Legit Reviews forum for the useful advice!!! (from 2006!!!)

    I have my son's desktop PC from 2007 with Intel Bad Axe 2 D975XBX2 motherboard, chipset Intel Glenwood-DG i975X. I just reinstalled partition C: (progs&apps) with Win 7 64 ultimate (reinstalled 3rd time in 3 years). But this was the first time I faced the Marvell Controller said:

    No array
    No HDD etc. already written by others in the forum.

    We have the latest BIOS available from 2009. and I tried what Tony919 suggested:

    "go to BIOS setup, select Advanced - Peripheral Configuration - (disable) Secondary SATA Controller."


    I did it and it works with my son's PC. I tell you frankly, first I was afraid that after that PC won't see the third HDD (1.5 Tb, which I placed later in 2010 as "container" for movies), but everything is O.K.

    So I strongly suggest to do what Tony919 suggested and Marvell Controller won't appear again with bothering messages.

    Thank you Tony once again!
