Default 750i FTW Raid 0 Not working

Ive got a EVGA 750i FTW and i just got a second WD GreenPower 500GB and i thought i could do a Raid 0 on it with my other 500GB WD Greenpower. I have nothing but problems so far. Can you help me get Vista 32-Bit installed with Raid 0 enabled?

You need to enable RAID in the BIOS.
Then create the RAID0 array in the Media Shield.
THEN install your OS.
If your OS does not see a single large drive, you need to install the RAID drivers now.

Hey man. You need to enable RAID in the bios. Once that's done, you need to press whatever button it is to enter the raid configuration utility. Go in there and set your raid options. Once you reset it will post, then show the status of your raid, and then proceed to boot. once you do that you should see your raid array in windows setup.

Hope that helps.

I amnot that dumb. I enabled raid in the BIOS hit fg6 and set it to stipping and moved noth drives to my Array. Then i rebooted and tryed to install vista and no luck. It shows an active raid when i boot up too. I whent ahaead and installed vista on my old drive with OFF and it installed just fine. When i got to windows i found tha the other drive is in Device manager so i whent to Storage manager and seen that the other drive says unalliccated but i can't format it.
