Okay so I've done a little digging, and it appears that this is a known problem for certain computers that shipped with Vista pre-loaded. From what I can gather, it sounds like I need to slipstream a RAID driver onto my XP install CD. I have located some instructions on how to slipstream the file(s), but I'm having trouble locating the files themselves.

Can anyone at least help me with that part of it?

My Motherboard info: UMA Motherboard w/943GML and 1394 (FRU) [Part #4006172R]

I keep finding references to the SATA controller, but I think I need the RAID controller, right? I'm assuming those are 2 different things. Okay so here's my question: How do I get from:

a. Knowing the motherboard information (above)

to

b. Finding the appropriate RAID driver so I can slipstream it?

Please help.
