Have just bought a generic IDE RAID card to stripe togeather a couple of disks I have sitting about to add more storage to my server. Server is a dual PIII machine with onboard SCSI. System disk and other information is sitting on a set of small SCSI disks - hence the upgrade.

However when I put the RAID card in and setup the IDE disks it refuses to boot off SCSI... it will boot fine with just the card installed (ie. no disks) but steadfastly tried to boot off the RAID card if there are disks installed.

The option in the BIOS to boot off SCSI rather than IDE has always been set, there's no option for booting off periperal cards vs onboard devices as I've seen on some server motherboards and I can't figure out how to get it to boot off the SCSI rather than the RAID card dispite a fair bit of research over the past day.... any suggestions?
