Well i finally got my RAID0 array working got everything perfect down to the T on how i want it, but there is one problem.
After i setup windows on my backup drive(160gig WD) it shows a screen letting you select an operating system to boot from, In my case i have the same OS on both hard drives so the selections are the same only from differnt hard drives. Well from those selections the one on the Top is the hard drive it boots automatically if no selection is chosen, and now that I installed WinXP on the second hard drive it is booting from it first and i want it to boot from my RAID0 array instead.
What i think is going on is my partitions are setup as my RAID0 is labeled C: drive and my Backup is labeled D: i think when booting it sets the D: drive(or in alphabetical order booting backwards) to boot if no selection is made. I was wondering if there is any way to change that without changing my partitions label.
I came about that conclusion because when i first installed the RAID0 array i still had the WD partitioned as C: and the RAID0 was D: and autoselection of them was the other way around with the Array booting first.
I would rather not switch the partition labels around because when installing the defalt location is C: and i prolly wont pay attention to it when im installing and it will just be a headache over and over.
Sys spec's are in sig
Thanks
