Hi glc,

Yes, I did press F6, but nothing happened (and no, I'm not using a usb keyboard) and setup could not detect any hard drives.
I think I was able to load the HPT driver using the Windows XP boot floppies, but setup still could not detect any drives.

Now I have formatted all 4 drives, follow the Soyo instructions and made sure RAID is enabled in the bios, SCSI is the first boot device. Then I go into the HPT setup utility to create the array. I can select the type of array (0/1), I can name it, I can select the cluster size, but I cannot select the drives. When I select create it tells me there is a valid partition and asks if I want to proceed. When I select (Y) Yes it hangs up and I cannot exit the setup utility.
