Vista RC1 will not detect RAID-1 array

Hi there,

I am running a dual-boot system with XP and Vista RC1 (5600) x64. My XP
system is running on a RAID-1 array consisting of two identical SATA 160GB
drives. I installed Vista on an IDE 30GB drive.

Install went great. I was even surprised that Vista found all of my
hardware and automatically installed the 64-bit drivers. The problem,
though, is Vista did not detect my RAID array. Instead, it detects two
seperate drives containing identical information. Nonetheless, if you check
the hardware devices, you see that the nVidia RAID devices are present in
Vista.

This is more of a nuisance than a huge problem. I can access data from my
XP drive(s), but when I do, my array is damaged and I must rebuild it before
running XP again.

Any ideas on getting my RAID array to be detected in Vista?

Thanks,
-Brad
