ASUS Sabertooth 990fx. Pressing CTRL F during boot does not bring up the RAID utility. Any suggestions?

No doubt too late in this case, but for the benefit of others, pressing CTRL F during bootup won't do anything if the BIOS is set to UEFI.
You need to boot into BIOS advanced mode, then select "Advanced" -> "SATA Configuration" -> "SB SATA Configuration" -> "Board SATA RAID ROM", and change UEFI driver to Legacy ROM. CTRL F will now work if you reboot. After making changes, you can revert back to the UEFI driver.

2x120gb SSDs in port 1+2
My ports are set to raid mode, driver set to Legacy ROM (tried both), and I'm hitting ctrl + f at post screen, still isnt working.. brings me to normal bios every time. Did that solve it for you or what?
Thanks
I had a similar issue with a different Asus mobo (M5A99X EVO R2.0). The solution for me came by accident when I had long given up on needing the RAID utility.
My monitor (a BenQ) seems to wake up a second or two slower than some other models. The RAID config message is only on screen for about a quarter of a second and by then it's (almost) to late to press Ctrl +F. If I'm really quick I can sometimes do it.
It was only when I connected an old Dell monitor to troubleshoot an unrelated problem that I had sufficient time to reliably press Ctrl + F and enter the utility.
