Hardware. Check all your connections, check you cables espically the cables to the CD-Rom and Hard Disk.

Do you have mixed RAM by chance?

all is safe and secure....i could load windows onto a single drive, just not a raid 0....no it wont boot if i hook up my third drive, and yes my power supply is big enough (400 watt antec smartpower)....no mixed memory (2x512 xms 2700)

Ah, you installed your Raid Drivers at the begining of Windows setup I take it (ala F6).

Cheers,
