Greetings all,
I have been reading these forums for a long time but now I am finally here needing help!
I have an MSI GT780DXR laptop in which I had a huge epic fail upon reformatting. I finally got Windows 7 reinstalled (somehow) and got my drivers installed but there is just one looming issue: my RAID 0 has failed. There is 2 500 GB internal drives in the laptop.
Here's what I get upon starting up the computer:
If you notice it still detects both drives but somehow and dor some reason the RAID stripe was broken.
Here are the options I get once getting into my BIOS (though I'm not sure if the problem can be resolved from within BIOS)
Here's what it looks like after I log in (which by the way, takes freakin forever since I restored) and open My Computer (When attempting to double click Drive E:, it prompts me to format the drive (don't think that's good))
Here's what it looks like when I open Intel Rapid Storage software:
Now when I go to open up Computer Management and see what the disk options are, I'm prompted with this message:
Would either of those 2 options help push me in the right directions if I format it that way?
Lastly, if I cancel that last message and go to look at just what is going on with the partitions and jazz, I get the Disk 0 which Windows is installed on and then Disk 1 thinks that it's 900+GB which is clearly not right (that's the total amount of avail storage, but remember I has 2 500GB internals):
Please anyone hear my plead!!!
PS, can anyone tell me why Windows takes forEVER to load ever since my restore and to as why it boots straight into PXE-2.1????:
Thank you!!!
