RAID0 install on reboot cannot find boot disk
Posted: Wed Nov 28, 2007 9:27 am
Hi all,
I have a vista ultimate 32bit RAID 0 PC:
2 x 150GB Raptors (RAID 0)
Seagate 500GB SATA disk
ASUS Striker Extreme Motherboard
I had problems with Vista so wanted to rebuild, on booting from the Vista CD it sees the RAID 0 disks as around 280GB and I installed the nVida RAID controller, Windows installs fine reboots during installation no problem.
When first into the system I look at the disk configuration and it sees the RAID 0 as the bootable and the 500GB as Active, as soon as I reboot the PC it comes up saying Disk Failure Insert System Disk, I have not changed any of the BIOS or RAID configuration, yet it still doesnt boot. I have reinstalled 2 times and each time I get this message, I assume something to do with the boot partitions?
I am really confused why it is doing this am I missing something very simple?
Any help appreciated.
