I have a Dell Precision 3420 PC which already has a RAID 1 installed via Rapid Store Technology and windows 7. I am going to install VMWare ESXi but it does not support "software" RAID. So I purchased an RMS25KB040 RAID controller and installed it. On boot, I do not see the option to get into the BIOS (Cntrl+C). Would anyone know why? I am concerned that this LSI chipset is not supported by this motherboard. I also wondered if I would have to Disable the RAID on the Main Board? Is it possible that the on-board RAID is stopping the newly installed RMS25KB040 RAID controller from working.
