Low RAID performance

This is a discussion about Low RAID performance in the Windows Hardware category; Hi I have a Abit KT7-RAID card with a Highpoint controller. My harddisk is two ATA100 disks. In WinMe the performance is great. In Sisoft Sandra I get 27000 points. (considering it's 5400 drives). But in Win2000 (and WinXP) I get 16000.

Hi
I have a Abit KT7-RAID card with a Highpoint controller. My harddisk is two ATA100 disks.
 
In WinMe the performance is great. In Sisoft Sandra I get 27000 points. (considering it's 5400 drives). But in Win2000 (and WinXP) I get 16000. Apparently RAID is not functioning. (it's RAID 0 btw)
 
Any idea what is happening?
 
(I'm using the latest Highpoint drivers)

Do you have SP2 or the ata100 hotfix installed?

OP
I have SP2 and the AMD patch. I checked out the hotfix, and apparently it's part of SP2.
Hmm I wonder what is happening here
