ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe RAID 0 Issue

I recently purchased 2 WD Raptor X 150 GB drives to make a RAID 0

I setup the RAID features in the BIOS for Nvidia RAID SATA port 1 & 2. After a restart I went into the RAID configuration and setup the RAID 0 Striping. After a reboot I could get into the motherboard BIOS but any key press on the keyboard USB or PS/2 would lockup the system. Unplugging the drives fixes the BIOS lockup. If I leave the drives plugged in with the RAID feature disabled, its fine. I have tried disabling Lagacy USB and the Silicon SATA controller.

My system has:
Antec 900 Case
ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe Motherboard
Corsair 750 watt CMPSU-750TX PSU
Athlon 64 4000+ 2.4 GHz
2x 1 GB Corsair XMS RAM (A1 & B1 slots)
Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1800 PCI-E
Nvidia Geforce 7950 GT PCI-E 16x
HT Omega Striker 7.1 Sound Card PCI
RocketRAID 2310 PCI-E running RAID 5 with 4 SATA drives (in 2nd PCI-E 16X slot)
Seagate 500 GB SATA (Onboard SATA port 3)
(OS Drive) Seagate 250 GB SATA (Onboard SATA port 4)

My RocketRAID is working fine with the RAID 5 and 4 SATA drives. I can access the Nvidia RAID configuration. The system locks up just before it attempts to boot from the system drive or a CD.

I can boot into Windows Vista if I disable the Nvidia RAID motherboard feature and the drives work as single drives fine.
