bklynzfinest · 04-01-2005, 10:11 AM

I built a system utilizing the A8V with a Seagate SATA drive attached to the Promise controllers. The IDE drivers were installed during XP setup and everything was working fine for about 4 months.

Yesterday I turned on my machine and when it got to the Promise BIOS post message it failed to recognize the hard drive and indicated ARRAY not defined.

I know XP is on the hard drive. Anyone have any suggestions how to reinstall the Promise 378 ATA driver since it appears it was somehow corrupted? I'd hate to lose everything on the hard drive and reinstall XP all over again.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.
