Disk does not contain a Windows XP compatible partition

Trying to setup XP Pro on a new machine with an Epox MB that has nVidia SATA
RAID support. There are two 160 Gig Maxtor SATA drives in a RAID 0
configuration on SATA1 and 2. There is also a 60 Gig Maxtor Ultra IDE drive
connected to IDE 1. The SATA RAID is set as the boot device in BIOS.
During setup I loaded the drivers for the RAID and Windows setup can see the
array. I then created a partition (60 Gig the first time) and attempt to
install XP on it. I get a screen saying the disk doesn't contain a Windows
XP compatible partition. I've tried various partition sizes and continue to
get this message.
