How to migrate a single boot drive to RAID 0
I am trying to move from one Vertex 3 to 2 in RAID 0. My system is backed up using Acronix Home 2012. I have been unable to boot my system after a restore to the RAID drives. I first disconnected all other drives, then secure erased both Vertex 3 drives. I then configured the SATA 3 RAID using the P67 ports on my Gigabyte GA-P67-UD7-B3 board. I then boot into Acronis and do a restore. I first restored the hidden partition and the boot partition and then the MBR so that I could size the boot partition correctly. I am restoring Win 7 64.
Upon booting I get a blue screen that tells me, "Windows has been shut down to prevent damage."
Is there a way to migrate from straight IDE single drive installation to a RAID 0 without having to re-install Windows 7? A reinstall takes me several days to get everything back on the system and configured so I want to avoid that if possible!
System details:
MB = GA-0P67A-UD7-B3
BIOS = F7 (latest)
DDR3 = 16GB at 1600
CPU = Sandy Bridge i7 @ 4.2GHz (33C at idle and 55C at full)
cooling = liquid
video = 2 NVidia GTX470

Thanks. I just purchased the Plus Pack and will do a Universal Restore.
