Proliant 800 with Smart-2DH array installing Windows XP Pro

Can this be done? Cannot seem to get the system to boot fromt he array once the initial Windows file copies are done, it keeps booting from the CD.
I have this old machine, but want to use it as a workstation.
Proliant 800 dual 500Mhz CPU 512Meg SDRAM, 3 SCSI drives in Raid 1 config
thanks for any help

Hello David,
Even though it's not a supported configuration but you can still do the manual installation by specifying the drivers for Smart 2DH. Please use the drivers for W2K since you wont find the drivers specific to XP.

Regards,
