9NPA+Ultra x64 fails to load after install!

I have a raid 0 setup and xp 32-bit installed. Frist I tried to install x64 with the x64 raid drivers that came with the board but those wouldn't take.. Then I downloaded the 6.66 and copied those sata files onto a floppy and the installer took. I set it to install on another partition and it finished installing (used Qboot to switch the active partition). Then when x64 starts to load up it immediately reset the computer and does that in a loop. I'm a bit steamed about this because I really want to play 64-bit far cry again which x64 worked fine until I got this board.. oh well.
 
Sounds like close to the same problem I had. I wasnt trying to install x64 though. I was trying to install raid drivers during windows Install so it would see my HD. I tried to do that, it all worked fine, untill the computer was booting into windows. It just displays an error message for like .0000001 milaseconds, then reboots over and over again. Seems like its a problem then for epox boards. I had to just end up partioning the drive instead, because theres no way to make windows see my larger than 137gb Hard drive without the drivers. Doesnt seem like there is a fix. I just said F**k it and partitioned it instead.


 
Yea, mines dying at acpitbl.dat and from what I'm found from google is that other board manufacturers fixed this problem with a new bios, however, epox is just and is relunctant to do so.. Maybe it's still within the 30 days at newegg and send it back.. This will be the 5 or 6th junk part I send back to them within 2 months.. I started using zipzoomfly.com and discovered they don't sell junk, well I haven't been screwed recently .. god this pisses me off
