Are trying to install Windows 7 on drives that are configured for RAID0?

yes i am but im getting the drivers off my mobo disk.

 

[ELMO_2006]

Are the drivers in their basic form i.e. is it an executable to run?

If it is an executable to run then it will not work.

hers what they look like AMD AHCI Compatible RAID Controller (C:\x64\ahcix64.inf)

Unless the mainboard bios is out of date? Sorry I'm still looking into this issue of yours.
