Ok...to (complete) the answer my own question..grin (as the responses have
helped me to realize what needed to happen).

Seemed also like everyone was saying what OS could do it EXCEPT WinXP
64-Bit...so maybe this will help someone doing the same.

Whereas Windows' Help was pretty useless (typed in RAID for a search
string - returned nothing!?)...I was able to enter the string 'Striped'
and it found instructions on how to do it.

In a nutshell - my problem was that I already has the space
partitioned...it needed unpartitioned/empty space on DYNAMIC disks (not
the normal BASIC type).

Hope that helps to complete the thread - thanks to the many thorough
responses.
