Well I thought I royaly fvcked up tonight. I formatted my array to do a fresh install and..............................................................................................aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Couldnt install windows for nothing! Used F6 to install my raid drivers and installation commenced till restart and you guessed it BSOD. Tried everything, no luck. Like an idiot I left my lappy at work so I was screwed for sure. Well I figured it only takes me 40 minutes to get to work what the hell I would go pick up my lappy and create a new raid driver disk. Was getting an error message: cannot mount drive.
Well after my hour and a half trip after getting stuck at a train I was finnaly home and created a new raid driver disk. Stuck it in and then things got real bad, error city: "undefined error has occured press any key to restart" FVCK me! what the hell did I do this for. Well after another retry I noticed my floppy was making more noise than usual so I swapped out floppy cables and whaalaa! Finnaly got the "this hardware hasnt passed........blah........blah" and now Im installing sp2. Just when you think you know what the hell your doing, bam! At least now I know why I was getting the bsod when trying to install x64 on a seperate partition. Whats weird is that my floppy had no problems writing data, just couldnt read it.
