Problem installing RAID on Intel GQ35MP mobo

[idata]

I am trying to install a new Intel DQ35MP, with two Maxtor 500GB SATAII drives. I have configured SATA as RAID. When rebooting to create the RAID set, the option Prss to enter RAID configuration utility is displayed briefly, but it pays no attention to pressing Ctrl-I, it just continues to boot.

How do I get into the configuration utility?

Solved the problem by reinstalling the BIOS and setting to factory defaults. I was then able to adjust my BIOS back to my own settings (including setting the default IDE to RAID). On Save and Exit, the RAID CTRL-I menu poped up long enough for me to get into the RAID configuration menu.
