 Where does XP store the HDD size? - Aaron C. Rescue
I'd be careful updating M/b RAID firmware on a populated array. Having done this in the past, I've noticed that some of the less-clever upgrades have ripped RAID arrays apart for me before. With striping, this is very bad, though I suspect you are describing a mirrored pair? Fortunately, I (usually) took backups.

Before you do anything else, SL, get some backups in place, if you haven't already.

I'm wondering if this is a problem with the Windows Installer, as all installations fail. Normally though, if the installer is borked, there's an installer-specific message. Strange.

SL, before you go messing with arrays, try this:

Might help?
