Searched the threads but nothing posted works, or is its not related. Not a rookie, have been doing this for well over a decade, but of course can still miss or misunderstand something.

Have 2 x 128GB OCZ Vertex 4 SSDs on the Z77 SATA3 (brown) controllers, then two ROM drives and two storage drives (1x1TB & 1x320GB) on the 4 SATA2 (black) controllers.

Set optimal defaults, then Advanced>SATA>RAID, saved and reset.

Briefly see POST screen, no RAID screen or anything else that others have described. Pressing Ctrl+I, but screen goes to message, "Reboot or select proper boot device or Insert boot media and press a key" every attempt.

Been at this for about 15-minutes. Cannot access the RAID utility. Any assistance appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Thank you for the input. I'm not sure what is different, but for the 5th time I set everything to optimized defaults, rebooted, set the SATA mode to RAID, rebooted, and on this occasion I saw the RAID Setup utility. The array is configured and installing.

Thanks again, and have a great day!
