So.... you killed your RAID array?

Hey, I know we are all giving you a hard time, but if you want an answer you need to give us a lot more info about what the problem is. Right now none of us even understand what happened, so we can't even begin to help you until you can clear that up.
My best guess is that you didn't know changing to a raid 0 would reformat you hard drives, and you lost your OS. And now you want to know whether you should wait for windows 7 or reinstall your old OS....is that correct?

It would also help if we knew the hardware you are using.

um...ok, I was creating RAID 0 because I have 2 same hard drives. My motherborad supports RAID. I did exactly what the book tell me and I was successfully created RAID 0. then I reboot my computer . I didnt know the OS is required. and I dont have any OS that can use. So i went back to delete the RAID 0 and I did it.
Now the real problem is here, after I deleted RAID 0 I reboot my computer, right after the POST, it will not show anything except for black screen with a little flash dash in the upper left .

well i have RAID 0 and after u set up RAID normally all that has changed is that the PC sees 2 Hard drives as 1 and u can load the OS when ever u like, until that point its like any PC with out an OS

if u had an OS on one of the hard drives before u did set up the RAID it is gone for good

though if u are saying u cant even enter the bios or anything or load a new OS then i am unsure as to what u have done.
