I have an EVGA X58 motherboard and have two WD Caviar Blacks set up in RAID 0 as my boot drive, running Windows 7 RC. They're connected to the Intel 1CH10R RAID controller.
So I'm booting up and getting "An Error Occurred(0)" on one of the drives on the bootup status screen. Man, I just love these obscure and totally unhelpful error messages. So an error occurred; that's nice. What the hell do I do about it?
After some searching, I found Intel Matrix Storage Manager software available for download on Intel's site. There's supposed to be an option in the software to check the drives and "mark as normal." There is a version of Storage Manager that supports Vista 64, so I figure maybe it's good for Win7 also. However, when I start to install it, I get a warning screen that says that after installing its drivers, they cannot be uninstalled. Well, isn't that special. What if those drivers it installs are not what I need, and totally bork my system?
So here I sit, paralyzed as to what action to take next. I frickin' HATE technology sometimes. Anybody know what to do about this particular problem?
Thanks
