MSI K7T266 RAID Problem. HEEEELLLLPPPP!!!!

I just got this private message from a guy online here. For once I am not having any problems with my own stuff so I figured I would try to help him out a little. I gave him all the advise that I could think of, but I figured that I would see what you thought because I know that 2 heads are better than one, or more heads for that matter.

Here is the message

"Just got the MSI K7T266 Pro 2 RU Raid motherboard. I am transferring my raid drives from a gigabyte board to the MSI board. It was a stripe with Windows 2000. The board recognized the bootable array no problem (knew it was to good to be true). Then when I tried to boot up I got the blue stop screen. I reinstalled windows 2k with the floppies. It made no difference. I hooked up a 3 rd ide drive formatted it and installed windows ME. It told me that it found another partition with nt or 0S/2 on it. When I booted up in me, it did not show show it as a back up drive, as it did on the old motherboard.
I have two raid computers with secondary backup hard drives and oses. I can change the boot in the bios. It has been working great till this board. Any clues as to what is different about this board?
What am I missing. Any help or incite you could give me to this predicament would be greatly appreciated."

 
Are the RAID controllers the same type? If they are the same type, do they have the same bios? I know the HPT370 has a newer bios that may cause loss of data if the RAID was created with the older bios.
