So keep your jumper setting to 1.5Gb/sI think your problem is WIN XP Bootable CD doesn't have drivers for VIA RAID controller. So if you have Floppy disk that came with the motherboard labeled VIA SATA RAID driver you can use it. Press "F6" (I guess) when it prompts you to press F6 to use 3rd party RAID driver at the begging of WINXP installation. After all the files loaded for installation it will ask you to whether you want to load 3rd party RAID driver from floppy disk.. do that and select XP driver.. done.. then you can partition your HDD and install XP..If you don't have that disk.. you can make your own.. Download this and extract the files<a href="http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/misc/ide/via/VIARAID220d.zip" target="_blank">http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/misc/ide/via/VIARAID220d.zip</a>Then go to folder VIARAID->DriverDisk and run the MakeDisk program to create a Driver diskYou don't have to do this if your BIOS has a setting  some thing like  SATA mode.. it might have options of IDE or RAID.. change it to IDE if u can find that settings.. If not try disabling RAID..</blockquote>
