You might try slipstreaming your SATA and SP2 and see if that helps.

Hi, have you followed the instructions in the manual or on the motherboard
CD as to how to create a floppy disc with the correct drivers on it? What,
if any, error messages are you getting? Have you setup the drive in the raid
bios?
