new Raid and windows wont run


Recommended Posts

Posted

I just upgraded with a second SATA HD (identical size and make to the first) and set up a RAID 1 with the Promise fasttrack 378 controller. The set up went fine, array is active, etc. However, on the reboot, windows XP SP2 will not load. The load screen comes up, then I get a quick flash of blue screen (too quick to read, but not BSOD) and the standard Windows "problem loading" screen comes up.

When Bios is set to plain SATA mode, windows loads and the drive is detected just fine.

Any ideas?

You needed to have the array created at install time and install the drivers then via F6. When you create the array it changes what type of drive it is and what type of drivers it needs.
