The boot drive on my system went down and I replaced it. Reloaded the OS and all the updated drivers. Which for the video cards mean that ATI Catalyst Install Manager is required. So, it is on the system. I went here

& downloaded the ATI SB7xx/SB8xx RAID driver. When I attempt to install it it tells me that the installation requires ATI catalyst install manager but can't detect it on the system so it aborts installation. Without the Raid driver I can't access my 2 Seagate drives which were in a raid 0 array. Not sure how to fix this. System specs below.

Solution
You can try just getting the drives as it extracts (Go too you temp folder and look for them BEFORE you let it close out) and try manually adding them.
