Earlier today, I screwed up my computer doing RAID 0, so I hadto install windows (which isn't activating) and download everything again, I thought if you cloned a drive, you could simply copy and paste it back onto the RAID array but ou can't so whatever.

The problem I have now is that my screen on my monitor just seems way to small and makes me quint, before RAID it worked fine but it doesn't now, I have a 1440p qnix monitor, here are some pictures:

This is at 100%:

And the desktop:

I don't understand, it worked before, I now wish I had never done RAID and just left my computer how it was, I've wasted 5 hours now tryng to fix it, I even have the cloned hard drive file still on my hard drive?! it doesn't make sense to me,

Any help will be much appreciated, thanks.
 
Raid-0 has been over hyped as a performance enhancer.
Sequential benchmarks do look wonderful, but the real world does not seem to deliver the indicated performance benefits for most
desktop users. The reason is, that sequential benchmarks are coded for maximum overlapped I/O rates.
It depends on reading a stripe of data simultaneously from each raid-0 member, and that is rarely what we do.
The OS does mostly small random reads and writes, so raid-0 is of little use there.
There are some apps that will benefit. They are characterized by reading large files in a sequential overlapped manner.

I suggest you set your sata mode to AHCI and redo the install.

Ok, I've done that, I have had my computer for 3 months now and due to the problems today, I have lost ALL of my files, games, pictures and sett is, all I want to know now is how do I make my qnix monitor (1440p) look normal so I don't have to squint.

It is very zoomed out, it wasn't before but everything looks very small.
