WinPE disk with Acronis Plug In won't recognize RAID

Thread needs solution

I have created a WinPE boot disk using Acronis. While making this disk I loaded the INF for the RAID in the server to be backed up. When I run the management console while the server is booted the RAID and non-RAID disks/volumes appear correctly. When I boot to the WinPE disk the server disks/volumes don't show up (actually they don't appear at all when trying to configure the backup). I would think that this is a driver issue, but I'm using the same driver on the server as I used to make the WinPE disk.

The only reason I made a WinPE disk was because the RAID controller in the Dell Poweredge T110 server box I'm working on has PERC S300 controllers that are not supported by Acronis Boot Media.

Can someone point me in the right direction to get this WinPE disk to see the RAID properly for backup?

Thanks,

WinPE media requires 32-bit drivers, if your OS is 64-bit you need not exactly the same.
