dezzemm,
If your PC has a RAID controller options there will be options in the BIOS to enable it. Or, you can post the make & model and we could look it up on the Web.
Running the Belar Advisor should tell you the model #, chipset, and RAID controllers.

I couldnt find any mention of it in the bios nor in the Belar printout which said this about model:
MICRO-STAR INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD KM400-8237
Main Circuit Board b
Board: MICRO-STAR INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD MS-6734
Bus Clock: 166 megahertz
BIOS: Phoenix Technologies, LTD 6.00 PG 07/28/2004
What has happened is that I unintentionally installed the drivers and access to it sits in the notification area of the task bar. Occasionally it tried to do something and a blank application would sit in the task bar. I tried to uninstall it via control panel/add remove programmes and then after that I would get the new hardware notification message and when I do nothing about it it says it is not installed etc - I went to device manager and it sits there with an exclamation mark and whatever I do re uninstall, remove it eventaully reappears esp after the add new hardware message appears when i reboot! I'm not sure if that makes sense!!
so -if its not there - how do I stop the computer from thinking it is!

Start->Run->msconfig->startup->un-check the application. At least it will not start with Windows.
If this is the MB:
...yes it does offer RAID. There should be an option in BIOS {look under IDE configuration, chipset, features, etc) to disable it. You may need to do some exploring. Or, there may be a prompt during boot to enter RAID utility, try disabling it there.
