    Well David, I have no idea what XP Windows can do. And I think when 
you say you used the RAID chipset BIOS you are using a hardware raid-1. 
That is fine. But you have two hard drives with a /boot/grub directory 
and I am not sure which one is being used. So they both should be set up 
to do a boot.

    Do you know how to reset grub so it uses the proper place to find 
the information? I have it wriiten down somewhere. I will look around 
for it.
