adaptec 2405 speed up kernel boot

[jammir]

I got the raid controller to have the OS boot fast off 2 SSD's but the actual raid card takes ages to start up is there a way to speed up the boot process?

What OS, can't you just "sleep" it rather than shut it completely down.

winxp sp3 32bit, when i go to sleep and try to come out of sleep the pcie raid card doesn’t initiate (as far as i can tell from the lights on the raid card) so there is nothing to load
