I recently upgraded my motherboard to an Asus A7N8X (not the deluxe model). And everything went well until it started booting Windows XP and gave me an error that said "Wrong system disk, please replace disk and try again" or something along those lines. I figured my Promise Fastrak TX2 Raid card was the problem so I took it out and low and behold it was. So now I have a system that runs fine but I dont have my 160GB secondary HD with all of my stuff on it (backups, music, etc). My main hd is a 18gb SCSI and the raid card worked fine with my old motherboard. The raid is getting detected and everything but Windows XP is not booting and I really need it to work :P so if anyone can help me please do, it would be greatly appreciated.

Have you checked to see that the boot sequence is right in the bios?
