    I have a new Vostro 1400 and it came with Vista, no other options. the problem when I loaded XP you have to turn off AHCI in the bios and switch to ATA operation for XP to load, some posts from other geeks on the net said that you can load raid drivers on install using the F6 key and then load Raid drivers but in XP the only option to load them is with an A:Drive and I don't have one.

    Does anyone have a workaround for this problem? Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Steve K.

    Sorry. It means nevermind. I had originally given a bad answer.
