I thought I was just unlucky the first time but when something happens two times in the exact same fashion, you just got to check into it a little more.

System is Vista Ultimate 32-bit with RAID 10 on Intel ICH8R chipset. A couple of weeks ago I tried running a .mov file using Apple QuickTime software (latest version) and that is when things started to go downhill. The file seemed very slow to load and eventually QuickTime crashed after a lot of persuasion. Once QuickTime was closed, I was notified of a RAID error through the Intel Matrix Storage Console but the same thing will happen if you reboot during the lockup as well.

Yep i had the same problem.

Stayed away from Quicktime, untill they send out 7.1.6, which works fine so far.

wow that's pretty weird.

but i haven't had a single issue with quicktime

i use Quicktime Alternative (latest one depending on when i had formated and installed, and what was available)....

using intels Raid controller as well... not a single glitch.
