XP won't boot into GUI-Mode setup with Si3114r

HI folks.

Just integrated the mass storage driver pack onto my UXPCD. Had to remove the 3114 so that XP Setup recogised the 3114r. Setup finds the drivers and reports my 2 160GB Baracudas as one 320GB drive.

I chose to create a 20GB partition and install XP on it. Formatted with NTFS (not fast format) and the files got copied to it.

The next step is reboot and GUI-mode setup. This works (tested on non raid systems many times) - BUT NOT ON RAID - XP does not boot. There's not even a message saying there's no boot device. After POST there's just nothing ...

The Board is a new one (ASUS P5GD2-dlx with SIL3114r).

Any suggestions what to do next ???

PS. I forgot to mention that it's XP-SP2 slipstreamed I'm trying to install.

Well, I made some changes to the SiI3114r entries in the txtsetup.sif file, similar to the changes I made to the SiI3112r controller. (Thank you, iSmart!) (the CC strings at the end, if you know what I'm talking about :P )

Anyway, it will be fixed with the new release, which should come very soon.

Ok. Don't mind - the problem's solved.

Should somebody else ever have the same problem do this:

deactivate the mainboard's second SATA-controller (the ITE-thing),

or use this one. Either way helps you out of this hell.

Somwhere else I read that a bios update could help - but this was no option to me 'cause I don't have a floppy or USB-stick to boot from, and since the OS won't boot ....

Well that's good news :) But I think the things I changed *might* make it obsolete to disable the ITE controller...

We'll see :)
