Installation has finnished. This post is from the PC the installation was done on. So it seems SP3_RC1 has a problem with stripped &/or mirrored (RAID) drives

Has anyone also been able to install windows SP3RC1 on a PC with stripped Hard drives? Installation Disk consists of XP pro SP3 RC1, IE7, .NET3.5, latest Bâshrat drivers among other switchless apps. Disk was slipstreamed using nlite 1.41. During installation you get an error stating 'Setup did not find any hard drives installed', press F3 to quit. I tried mirroring the drives but got the same error message. I disabled Raid in Bios & the installation with the same XP disk seems to be going ok. As of this posting I have another 10min before the installation completes. Has anyone else seen this?

Forgive my ignorance if I have posted the wrong information for my Asus A8V. Is this the information you are referring to; from the Device Manager>SCSI & Raid controllers>VIA serial ATA Raid Controller>details tab VIA Serial ATA RAID controller Hardare Ids PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3149&SUBSYS_80ED1043&REV_80 PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3149&SUBSYS_80ED1043 PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3149&CC_010400 PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3149&CC_0104
