Asus A8N-SLI boot question

I know this is an old Mobo but I have a question about the boot process;
Everytime I start it, it posts then gives me a screen that asks "press Control-S or F4 to enter raid utility" or something to that effect. I have no raid, don't want raid, I have no raid enabled anywhere in the bios, I reset the CMOS and I have reformatted and reinstalled windows several times in the past (for other reasons, not just to kill this) and this screen just laughs at me:eek:
It isn't hurting anything but it slows the boot process and it just will not go away and it has become somewhat of a quest to figure out! I'm would think the answer is buried somewhere in the bios but by clearing the CMOS it should have gone away?
Any help would be greatly appreciated... I did a search but this board is 5 years old and info is scarce.
 
Mine says that too but I just cleared the CMOS and turned off RAID in the BIOS. For some reason mine needed to clear CMOS first.

As soon as I saw this post I went to the computer in question, powered it down, pulled the plug, removed the battery, cleared the CMOS, put the jumper back where it belonged plugged everythin back in and booted into the Bios, set everything up the way I wanted it and I'll be damned the screen I have been looking at for 5 years is gone!!!! Woo Hoo, when they say "it's the little things in life" they know what they're talking about, it made my weekend :cool:
