Can't install Windows 8 on Msi M9 Ack (raid 0)

koenvanlooveren · Sep 17, 2015

can't install windows 8 on my new msi m9 ack motherboard (z170).

I just bought everything new,

2x ssd 850 evo 500gb

msi m9 ack motherboard

intel i7 6700k

hyperx fury ddr4 2666 cl 15 ram

and I already had a msi gtx 760 4gb oc

so I configured a raid 0 with the raid mode, and then (ctrl + i)

When i plug my windows installation usb in.

He can find the raid 0 array. but I can't install anything on the array.

this happens, and I don't know what to do.

I installed the drivers and nothing happend. I can install windows just on a single drive

I am now running windows on a single drive, but that is not what I want?

When I am in raid mode I get the message, when I am not in raid mode (AHCI) I don't get that message.

Verion is E7966IMS.100
Build date is 08/19/2015
(it is the new Z170 MSI M9 ACK motherboard)

before i create a raid 0 array the 850 evo ssd controller type is AHCI

after i created the array it is still AHCI

Are there drivers for samsung ssd to make the the controller type RAID?

Please Help me

How did you manage to create an array in AHCI mode? You have to set the Intel SATA controller in RAID mode, then Ctrl-I and create the array using the Intel utility.

No i created an array in RAID mode, but my ssd controller type is in AHCI

That's normal. Back to the first picture, what's displayed is the installation boot drive, not the array.

are my own pictures so this is my setup. what do I have to do?

Did you delete the partition?

koenvanlooveren · Sep 17, 2015

I created, deleted, formatted, everything, the 2 single drives, the array.

GhislainG · Sep 17, 2015

Are saying that you deleted the partition by clicking Delete on that menu, but it still won't allow you to click Next to install?

koenvanlooveren · Sep 17, 2015

yes indeed, I tried every combination

GhislainG · Sep 17, 2015

I can't try it as I don't have that setup and I'd never use 2 SSDs in RAID 0 even if I did. I suggest you contact MSI support as they may have tested that configuration.

I needed to enable hot plug. don't know what it is but it worked

And make shure you make a ueffi bootable usb & boot of in usb ueffi not legacy!!!! verry important, otherwise it doesn't work as well

koenvanlooveren :

That's weird, but it enables removal and insertion of SATA devices while the system is powered on. It usually is required only when using external devices, but I always have it enabled on my systems since I use E-SATA drives for backup purposes.

Was that all you needed to do? I am trying to do the same thing with an MSI H97M board; completed the build of the system yesterday but can't install Windows on it and was about to ask for help because I'm getting the same error, but if it's just the hot plug needing to be enabled... that will be brilliant.

I'll try it at home this evening.
