ok guys anyone any ideas as to what is causing this problem,
i have an asus a8r32-mvp bios 0404, 2 maxtor 250gb sata11 ncq hdd, athlon 64-4000, 1gb corsair ram, in antec titan case 550 smartpsu, 2 plextor dvd rw, artic freezer pro cooler. the problem is when i install windows xp64bit onto the sata drives in raid 0 config all works fine for about 20 or so restarts then it looses one of the drives and i have to reinstall xp64, and all is fine again untill pc has being switched on and off a few times. now this problem does not arise when using windows xp pro 32bit, machine runs fine with no loss of hdd, i am using the drives in the same cofig in both os's on same ports on the uli controler. All drivers and software appear to be installed ok, with no errors showing, i have used the drivers off supplied cd.
have installed xp64 about 6 times and always the same problem, also the drive that fails is either and not just one of them.
I have run xp pro 32bit on this set up for 1 week with no probs and reinstalled back after trying xp64 and have no issues again.
anyone have any ideas, many thanks in advance.
sorry for the long post.
