Trying to boot WindowsXP on Asus A8N-SLI
I've just put a new system together and I'm trying to install WindowsXP.
I have a striping RAID 0 system set up on 2 SATA drives. After loading XP onto a partition, the install process reboots. I then get a message "Error, unable to read from disk" when it tries to continue with the install. If I go into the troubleshooter mode of the XP install tool, I can see all the files loaded on the C: partition. Any ideas why I'm getting the read error during the boot? -- =__ __ __ _ __ _= Andrew Krieg - Professional Newsgroup Junkie = =_ __ _ __ _ _ __= = =_ _ _ ___= E-mail: = =_ __ _ __ _ __ _= WWW: http://my.execpc.com/~krieg =

Did you load the SATA drivers when setup asks you to press F6? JW
