BIOS for the A7N8X is the latest 1008 version which overcomes a boot  
limitation - the board would not boot with more than 1 SATA controller  
installed.

This RAID corruption bug was supposedly fixed in 1005.

Since contacting Asus technical support is likely to be as productive as  
getting blood from a stone, I'm going to go ahead and scrounge another  
motherboard - since this is socket A stuff it should be dirt cheap by now.

Thanks for all the suggestions,
Jonathan
