Hey, recently I purchased two 36gb WD Raptors. These babies look amazing. Anyways, I have a Gigabyte K8NS Pro and I am trying to set them up in RAID 0 mode. Through the BIOS it recognized them and then through the SATA RAID utility on the MB I set them up properly. But now I have a big problem, Windows XP doesn't recognize RAID or SATA when i'm installing it.
