Ok, thanks I will make the recommended changes in the instructions.

In order to make this work in XP SP3:
In step 3 of the instructions (https://randemsystems.com/freeware.html), you ALSO need to copy the files dmadmin.exe and dmboot.sys to C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386, overwritting the versions already in this folder.
Then continue with the instructions (rebooting in normal mode).
Note: in Step 5 (secondary steps) do NOT delete the files. Windows System Protection will not restore the modified files from DLLCache, but will prompt you for the CD. If you cancel that message, it will not replace the files at all and they will remain missing. If you wish to test this, instead of deleting the files, move them to another folder (ex: the desktop) and then move them back once you're done observing the behavior.

Thanks, I will look into it then post my results.

I notice that you haven't updated your program to work with SP3.. You might want to see http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/237282-45-breaks-software-raid-hack for the new fixes..
