The nforce4 RAID is purely a software raid and getting both windows and 
linux to play nicely with the partitions is a difficult task(if not 
impossible). You need to get a real Hardware RAID controller like the 
3ware 8506-4LP (for SATA drives). Works flawlessly and recognizes 
partitions in both linux and windows. The drivers for the 3ware are 
built into the kernel by the way. Hardware RAID also puts less stress on 
your CPU
