So I just recently decided to do a RAID 0 configuration on my ASUS M4A89GTD with two 1 tb drives. I first set the Raid controller to the raid 0 setting and added my two drives. The raid manager reported back the raid 0 drive was healthy and working fine.
I proceeded to go through with a fresh windows 7, 64-bit install. The install goes fine but when the computer boots up to load windows 7, it hits a blue screen and instantly restarts. Over and over again.
I think I tracked down the issue to a rogue registry entry. Apparently there is an entry called iaStorV that causes the drivers.sys file to not load the drivers correctly, causing a blue screen error.
Things ive tried:
Using ubuntu off a cd. Didn't work because the chntpw doesn't know how to mount a raid 0 drive
Regedit bootloading programs, dont work because they dont know how to deal with a raid drive
Regedit in the system restore command prompt. Doesn't work because it's version doesn't match windows 7
Ive been at this for 3 days now and any help at all would be much appreciated.
