RAID 0 not registering properly in Windows

Hi there,

I'm having difficulty with my RAID 0 drives. I currently use two Seagate Serial ATA drives, which are each 80GB. It's always worked fine, and then I bought a new Gigabyte motherboard. I installed RAID just as I had previously, and on bootup, it recognizes both drives and displays a total 160 GB message. In my Gigabyte RAID configurer (in windows), it displays both drives and the correct capacity. This is all fine.

Windows, however, seems to think my C: drive is only 80GB instead of the 160 I'm expecting. I am not configured for RAID 1 as far as I can tell, which would have easily explained the problem.

Any ideas? I would prefer to fix it without reloading everything; that would be a major pain, as I've got quite a bit of stuff on my drives. I'd rather just go buy a third hard drive than try to erase everything on these ones to free up 80GB.

Ryan
