boot problem,.,..,,..,

Hi all, I had to re-install vista 32bit ultimate as I had changed
motherboards and now when booting vista I get DISK BOOT FAILURE PLEASE
INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER I do this and vista boots up fine. I've
tried the repair startup option on the vista DVD but it found no fault.
I have checked the BIOS settings and all is fine.
Can anyone help solve this problem?
System specs...
2x500gb Maxtors in RAID 0. Motherboard Asus Crosshair, 4gb Corsiar XMSpro
RAM, AMD FX-64 black edition, 2 x Gainward bliss 8800GTX graphics.
Thanks

I've gone through the steps on the links, and still it needs the Vista DVD
before it will boot, suppose I'll just have to leave the DVD in the drive

I had to reinstall, I found that in the repair option on the vista dvd my OS
drive had become E: instead of C: that windows was reporting, so I
re-installed with no other sata or IDE drives connected and the problem has
gone away thanks for all your advice tho, much appreciated.
