Fix Windows troubleshooting PC setup moving a bootable RAID 0 array to a new motherboard
Hey! You're making a solid upgrade from your old X79/i7 setup to the new i5-13400 on H770. The BIOS is working with both drives in RAID 0 and recognizing them as bootable, but Windows isn't cooperating. You're stuck in that blue screen prompt asking you to choose troubleshoot or turn off the PC. Since the built-in repair doesn’t help, you might want to try running some commands from the command line to diagnose the issue. Checking disk health, registry entries, and system logs could give you clues without reinstalling. Let me know if you want guidance on those steps!
Ten generations seems like a big leap to assume Windows will accept it. A fresh install is the most sensible option, since trying to force it might just hide deeper problems down the line.
Start in a Linux virtual machine and transfer files elsewhere. There’s no known method to erase Windows from its original installation.
I restored my setup to the previous system and transferred files that way. After that, I removed and rebuilt the RAID array on the other drives. Now the Windows installer USB isn’t seeing the RAID array as target drives. Should I install the Windows RST drivers manually during installation? I didn’t face this problem when I installed Windows on the RAID array in my old system...
I managed to locate the intel RST/VMD drivers—why did you design them as executables instead of standard drivers? It would make more sense to just load them onto my boot USB. Thanks for your assistance, Abydos.
