Re: Support for AHCI/RAID SATA 2 HDD controllers?

It needs native drivers for Vista, especially if you running the 64-bit
platform. I recommend you create a logical partition for it, launch setup
from within Windows XP, and select the logical partition on which you will
install it. But report the issue to the manufacturer of the device.
