I have XP and RC2 dual booting on a SATA RAID 0 array with no issues. The
problem is that I also have a SATA RAID 1 array that RC2 recognizes as two
separate disks instead of an array.

I've tried a few tricks in this forum but so far no luck. Any help is
appreciated.

Specs:

Asus A8N-E with latest 1013 bios
NVIDIA RAID Class Controller verion 5.10.2600.819 (9/8/2006)

Healthy boot RAID 0 array using Microsoft driver 6.0.5744.16384 (6/21/2006)
Healthy RAID 1 array using 2 Seagates recognized as separate drives

PNuts:
I have the same mother board running RC2 with Nvidia raid 1 without
any problems. My raid array shows up as only one drive. Verify that the bios
is setup for raid on the two drives that are the raid 1 array. After a bios
update I forgot to reset the bios for the raid array and showed separate
drives and partitions.

Good advice. I should have mentioned that I do have it set up in the bios and
did use F10 to build the array. It works fine in XP but I can't get Vista to
recognize it. Strange! :)

I feel that a mature set of NVIDIA chipset drivers for Vista will be needed
to resolve this.
