I need some help. I am putting together a system for home/game use and thought a RAID 0 array would be a good choice. I enabled the RAID in BIOS on SATA A primary and secondary. Entered the RAID BIOS and set up the stripe for optimal settings(which sets it up for 64k stripes), cleared the data on the array, saved and rebooted. Went through the XP setup loading the RAID drivers (F6 selected both drivers by pressing S yada yada) XP load seemed clean and fast about 8-9 minutes, no errors no hang ups. System needs to reboot after initial load, so I restart. XP splash screen appears with the green scroll at the bottom, right before you get to the XP desktop system reboots its self. Goes through post and then you get the advanced boot menu from XP. Click on safe mode and still reboots its self. Went through the same set up after formatting the array 2 times and still get the same end result, am I missing something? angry.gif
