I recently installed Vista on a spare hard drive, and the process went
very smoothly - hardly needed to touch anything. However, Vista
doesn't include drivers for my onboard IDE RAID and neither does MSI's
website. Does anyone know if there are plans to release Vista drivers
for this (admittedly slightly old) motherboard? Or if there's some way
I can get the XP drivers to work?

Did you just try loading the XP drivers as usual? I have an onboard
Promise FastTrak 376 RAID that only has XP drivers and the driver
disk that came with my motherboard works fine with Vista.

I downloaded XP drivers and pointed Vista to them, but no go, sadly.

Didn't work for me either. If it really did work for you tell us what
you did.
