Talking Got a working dual boot
As it says, and I don't believe how easy it was eventually.

Used a spare disk, installed w2k, created an NTFS partition with PM7, formatted it using the w64 install disk, installed and voila

Not recognising the RAID 0 array yet but one thing at a time

Yep, you get a boot screen, gives you the choice of w2k or xp.

Did an image of my main disc last night as well and installed it again so I've now got it on two disks.

I've got Dual Boot with RAID 0 of the NF3 250 Pro!!!

Had to chat to NVidia to find out which of the IDE drivers I needed to get to floppy for my F6 option with the 64bit 4.34's as I didn't have the time to do a process of elimination given that the directory was just a little too big for a floppy.

RAID drives in 64bit with 32KB cluster size are quite rock and roll indeed.

I have XP 32bit RAIDED and XP-64bit RAIDED on the standard IDE controller.

Best performance for me is coming through 32bit in terms of 3D though and I do have some pretty nifty 64bit ATi drivers I've been trying.

I hear on the grape-vine that there may be some more NF3 250'ers coming soon.

By the way Dod - make sure that if you have any networking issues you turn the level of the hardware firewall down a bit. Call that Tip 1

Nothing yet. Got most of it set up last night but I killed my raid array where I had all by graphics drivers so its 800X600 16 colours at the moment.

I know this is hardly scientific but it "feels" quicker than both my other boards, just seems to be snappier, if you know what I mean.
