ML310 G5 RAID management under Windows SBS 2003

[quaquaraqua]

Hi i am new to the forum.
I correctly installed a new ML310 G5 server with 2 SAS 250gb disks and Windows SBS 2003, following the whole RAID procedure (enabled RAID on the PC BIOS; entered the RAID BIOS - pressing F8, ctrl+A doesn't work - and correctly configured ad built a RAID1 array; loaded the embedded RAID driver disk pressing F6 during windows setup, etc.). Everything worked out fine and the OS boots up and it's correctly installed on the RAID1 array. I correctly installed all the drivers and HP software using the Smartstart CD, and everything worked out fine. I would like to have a tool for monitoring and check out the array status (like I have on an Acer server), but HP Array configuration Utility (ACU 8.0.14.0) doesn't recognize any controller (see the attachment). Can you help me?

thanks a lot.
