I had exactly the same problem and this solved the problem. I slipstreamed my XP install disk with SP-2 and the first time I booted from this disk, XP discovered all of the partitions. No problem.

There are various articles on slipstreaming. I used this one: http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase...slipstream.asp
