SIIG PCIe (1x) card out to RAID 0 eSATA 300?

My Notebook system is a Dell Inspiron E1705, T2400 (1.83 GHz Core Duo) with 1
GB Ram. Not certain but I think the chipset is Intel 915. Used the
aforementioned RAID 0 in Windows XP SP2 with no problems. When I installed
Vista Beta 2, the RAID was recognized and seemed to be operable, but couldn't
be sure since Windows Explorer would crash when I would try to access to see
what was being written to the drives.

After installing RC1, the RAID drives are simply ignored. That is, they do
not even spin up although they show to have power. Have tried to install SIIG
drivers, but they apparently do not cause any spark of recognition.

Is there any things I can try, or do I just wait until either Intel or SIIG
writes Vista drivers for the chipset or the PCIe 1X 54 card?
