May 21, 20233 yr Hey all, Trying to get unraid set up and things aren't going so well. When I put in the USB stick and try to launch the OS, the system just resets...I haven't even made it to the login screen once. In the process of uploading a video now so everyone can see what's going on. This is my first attempt at using any kind of NAS software so it's possible I'm overlooking something. Here's a list of things I've tried so far: different USB drives: one set up for legacy mode, the other set up for UEFI prepping the drive using the USB Creator tool prepping the drive manually plugging the drive(s) into all usb ports on the motherboard's rear pannel The heart of the system is a Dell XPS 8500 that I moved into a Silvetstone NAS chassis. It has an i7 3770, 8GB RAM and a Thermaltake 650W PSU Edited May 21, 20233 yr by Aerohydrous
May 21, 20233 yr Author Solution Found a fix! I reinstalled Windows to update the BIOS (Dell only provides updates as .exe files) and now Unraid is running! I was on firmware A11 before now I'm on A14. What a relief, I've been tinkering with this since last night. Edited May 21, 20233 yr by Aerohydrous
