| I have a Pentium 4 3.0Ghz, running XP Pro, 1Ghz Ram, an ASUS P4C800-E deluxe motherboard, two WD Raptor 36GB drives setup in Raid-0. Everything worked fine. I have since added two WD 180GB IDE drives setup in Raid-0. Upon booting my system the second Raid array is recognized by the Promise controller.
Unfortunately Windows is not detecting this array (I assume it's a Windows problem). The only drives that appear upon clicking My Computer are the Raptor drives. I have followed these instructions to edit the registry.
1. Use the Registry Editor to navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Curr
entControlSet\Services\Atapi\P
arameters.
2. Add Value Name EnableBigLba, a REG_DWORD data type, and set the data value to 1.
Still no recognition of the second raid array.
This is my first system build and this is the only problem I have had.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. | |

| Have you installed the driver for the Promise RAID controller in Windows? | |

| Also I have seen drivers from manufacturers that only work in XP Service Pack 1, even though the instructions don't specifically state that. | |

| You need to mount this drive to the file system, this you can do with diskpart program at the command prompt.
