So I recently built a new pc (came in today), so I tried to create install Windows 7 on one HD and create a Raid 0 using two other hard drives. However in my computer the "Raid 0 HD" doesn't show up as Hard Disk Drives but my first drives does. Although on the device manager it list RAID 0 under Disk Drives.

Click Start, right click My Computer, click Manage. Then click Disk Management. This is the screen we're talking about - where you can partition your harddrives.

did you go into device manager -> disk manager -> initialize the dirve, give it a drive letter and format?

Know that initialize drive can destroy data already on the volume, so don't do this in the future where you might have data on the disks. Initializing means deleting the first 20MB and putting a valid partition table on the volume, because it wasn't found.

Can you put up some screenshots should it still it not work?

I couldn't go to disk manager from device manager, although I finally found some time ago.
