Hotmail is sort of a "Dump on impact" address... I am not sure about your problem although I do have a WAG (Wild Assed Guess). It might be that the promise drivers are writing data to the drive under Windows XP in a certain manner which is incompatible with the way the ataraid drivers expect to see the data. Years ago I experienced this when I moved a hard drive from an old machine with an special IDE BIOS card that allowed me to use large hard drives, to a machine that had a modern BIOS that could recognize large hard drives. The new machine could not get any data from the drive, whereas when I moved it back, the data could be seen just fine. Eventually I determined that the drive was written in a different way incompatible with the modern BIOS. Eventually I just uploaded the data to a local server, moved the drive into the new machine, reformatted it and put the data back on it. Everything worked fine after that. -Chuck -- Quantum Linux Laboratories - ACCELERATING Business with Linux Technology * Education | * Integration | http://www.quantumlinux.com * Support | chuckw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind. -- Albert Einstein
