Should I expect any problems trying this?

Ok, first things first, here's my setup...

Abit IC7-G
2xHitachi 160gb SATA, RAID 0 (on Intel RAID controller)

I want to add another IDE hdd to use for a scratch drive for my TV capture card. If I add the harddrive, will my system still be able to boot from the RAID controller and not the first available IDE hdd?

Shouldn't be a problem. You should be able to rearrange the disks' boot order in BIOS.

Standard warning about raid 0; lower life expectancy, not much speed increase, backup now!, blah blah blah.
