So I just got a Promise 4310 card from a friend to upgrade my server storage from 2x250GB RAID 1 to a 4x750GB RAID 5 array. The problem that I'm having is that I'm now required to press the spacebar to boot into Windows when the raid setup utility screen comes up. If I don't press the spacebar, the computer hangs and doesn't boot. Has anyone run into this before?

Promise 4310 boot issues

I'm not booting off the 4320, I have a 2x250GB RAID1 as my system drive. I installed MS Server 2k3 Enterprise on that, then installed the 4320 afterwards. The bios is the latest version, which was the first thing I checked before even plugging in the drives.
Sondo:
Boots fine with no drives, but as soon as the drives are attached it hangs.
I'm thinking there is some simple setting somewhere that I'm just not finding. I've disabled the 3rd party boot in the MB bios, same boot configuration as I had before.... Floppy, CDROM, HDD-0 (which is my RAID 1 array).
