Promise SATA300 TX2Plus Vista Drivers?

I've recently upgraded a Windows XP MCE box to Vista Home Premium.
Everything seems to be working OK with the exception of the Promise SATA300
TX2Plus card. There were two SATA drives that I used to be able to access
via XP that are no longer visible under Vista. Promise has NOTHING on thier
web site that talks about VISTA drivers for this HBA. Anyone know anything
about this?

Unfortunately only Promise can resolve the issue. If they don't release
drivers for their controller then it won't work under Vista.

When I ran the upgrade evaluation program, there was no mention of any
incompatabilities with that piece of hardware. In the Device Manager, the
system says the card is running fine. I think MS ought to flag that
particular piece of HW as incompatible until Promise gets the drivers
released.
