Hi All,

I have to upgrade two XP SP2 pc's here at work to hardware IDE raid controllers. I am sure this will make Windows unhappy when it goes to boot. Does anybody know a good way of adding this hardware and keeping Windows happy, preferably without requiring a reload of the OS (upgrade install or otherwise.)

I did this with an Adaptec IDE RAID controller sometime back with no problem. I put the controller in while leaving the system running on it's current IDE controller and installed the drivers for the new controller. Then I moved the drive over to the new controller, added the second drive and did the mirroring in the controller BIOS. It worked fine after that.
