enabled the raid controller of my motherboard (silicon image 3112)
installed the driver and defined a raid 1 set.
Defined the source disk and the destination....
Then the Windows raid utility sent a message saying that the set was creating and that the rebuild was on going.... but nothing changed (% in the progress bar).

Decided to restart the PC and before XP starts accessed tge Raid utility: rebuild also didn't show progress
Deleted the set and recreated and asked for a copy (I have a disk with data....): no result

Any hint please?

When I say no result is because after 1 hour nothing moves and I don't hear any noise of disk access.....

TIA!
