IDE onboard RAID

I have a mobo with built in RAID. I was attempting to set it up with a fresh XP install but, Windows does not see a HDD. So I went looking for drivers, tried the install hit F6, drivers dont work. So I installed XP on the regular IDE then put it on the RAID IDE and booted, The RAID's BIOS allowed me to create a mirror.
Now when the system boots it detects a RAID Mirror with a * , whichs according the the boot screen means a bootable set, but the systems goes on the the boot CD option and freezes there.
I have went into BIOS and set every startup option possible still nothing...
help?
