Hi,

anyone has tried to install vista on such motherboard. I have 3 disks
attached to the nVidia Raid. During the Vista setup (launched from XP),
I selected a spare HD, and also selected load drivers. I used the Raid
drivers
from XP, but it seems that is not working. At reboot I get BSOD stop 7B


Any clue
 
I'm currently running Beta 2 x64 on an A8N32-SLI board. I have three SATA
disks in my system; a single non-RAID disk and two disk in RAID0 (striped).
Installed without problems to a dedicated partition on the non-RAID disk, no
need to load drivers during setup. After the installation was completed I
loaded the NVIDIA nForce RAID driver through Device Manager to get access to
the RAID0. Works like a charm now, I can access all of my volumes.

Regards, Vincent.
 
How did that work? I have virtually the same setup, but I keep getting a
system volume error, and won't allow me to install. :/ interesting...I
woner what it could be? I have my Vista partition as the 2nd half of my
Raptor drive. My 2 WDs are the Raid-0.

Click to expand...

The set-up it's about the same, but if I don't install the drivers, I'll get
a BSOD
stop 7B. If I load the raid drivers (beta from nVidia) after the first
reboot I get
a pop up saying "An error occurred while locationg the drive onto which
Windows is being istalled"

Guys any clue?
