Hello,
I have an IDE primary drive (c:) and a SATA RAID 1 as programs & data drive.
The raid is an intel southbridge raid controller on the motherboard. My
RAID contains my d: and e: drives which contain Program Files and all user
data. One of the SATA drives of the RAID died. So I purchased a new
identical 160 Gig drive and replaced the bad drive. With the intel RAID
controller the array is rebuilt in the OS not the BIOS. So I have to boot
the machine into WinXP in order to rebuild the array.
Ok, so here lies the rub. When I try to boot the machine with both drives
installed, windows hangs in the WGALogon.dll. If I remove the new drive so
that the RAID is degraded, the system will boot. How am I supposed to
rebuild my array, if WGA will not allow the system to boot?
Paul
