the raid is already set up. it doesnt work with a certain size hard drive in xp cant recognize it. it goes threw the steps on putting in the drivers for it but after that it stops and says it cant recognize the what hard rive i have mainly because its too big from what i have read. so i was woundering if there was a way to get it to install with a large hard drive

I've installed XP on my 1Tb HD just fine, sounds like it's just the RAID then that's confusing XP

I would stick with Vista honestly, unless you really can't stand it. Windows 7 will be out soon as well, or you can try the Beta/RC of it and then you can upgrade from those to retail when it's ready.
