Hello,
I'm installing RAID1 on XP. I was following instructions on hardware installations. I mirrored my hard drive, rebooted and got a blue screen XP error report. After researching about the process I realized that I should've added the driver first. I added the driver, but my boot up still gets terminated. I've heard that I need to edit BIOS - I tried, I'm not sure how to set the BIOS correctly or if there is something else that I'm not doing. I'll appreciate any info. Please help.

I didn't delete anything yet. I can boot into XP, if I unplug RAID cables. The RAID I'm using is made by Promise, FastTrack100.

The driver is already there. Why reinstalling XP would solve the problem with RAID?
