Hello,
I didn't see anything exactly like this in the forum, but If I'm given a link, I can drop this thread.
I upgraded my Vista Ultimate x64 pc bios using Gigabyte's @ Bios, but apparently I forgot to uncheck the box that removes my raid profiles.
I have a mirrored pair of raptors (Raid1) and a striped set of 3 HDs (Raid0) for storage.
Also I have 1 veloci-rapter OS drive (no Raid) that is not showing up at all? [a dual boot with 2 Vista volumes]
Below is the configuration utility:
What I've tried:
I can't boot from any disk!
-I tried a fix from the Win Recovery disk
(this may be because the configuration is gone that recognizes bootable volumes??)
I tried returning to the last known bios settings
-including clearing the bios manually from the jumper.
-I configured the CD as the first boot drive. . .
(again, probably the same reason this does not work)
I tried Xpress Recovery2 from the Gigabyte CD
- it seems unable to read the disk
I may not be correct about this being a raid issue, but if it is, then why can't I see/boot from the single disk volume (vRaptor) ??
I have more info, but I wanted to keep the first post short
Thanks For looking at my problem
(I realize now how little I like my secondary pc!)
