OMG! I begin by checking running services. Not there. I check the directory you mentioned. Not there. I go to install the files from the Asrock site, says I already have a newer version installed, I proceed anyway, reboot, AND IT WORKS! I have the RST application now! Thank you so much Aszu...

Just about ready to give up here. Just formatted all my drives and started from scratch. In exactly the same position I was in a few hours ago. I think I'm going to just try to trust that the BIOS is implying the HDD is being cached to my SSD. I took careful notes this time so hopefully they...

Well, just updated everything and the only noticeable change is my wireless card isn't working anymore. Guess I'll just start over from step 1 (Windows on the HDD).

I take no offense at all. Obviously I'm doing something wrong so I appreciate any help I can get. :) I'll hold off on the SSD firmware update for now but try to update everything else. No, the RST stuff is the first thing I do in Windows on first boot. I think I formatted the drive (using the...

Just thinking, would updating the firmware of my SSD (Crucial m4) help my situation? Guess it couldn't hurt.

I have checked the area next to the clock (as this is where I original haas the application when I installed Windows to the HDD)... Nothing. I can even do a search of the drives for "Rapid Storage Technology" and still not get any results. I've tried reinstalling Windows twice but that hasn't...

Well... apparently I spoke too soon. Windows finished installing and as soon as I got to my desktop on first boot I inserted the disc that came with my motherboard that has all the drivers and utilities (including the Intel Rapid Storage tool). I installed everything just as I had done when...

You nailed it! Grabbed the driver off Gigabyte's website, unpacked it to my flashdrive, boot to Windows disc, load driver, and BOOM, the SSD appears. Installing Windows 7 to the SSD now. Really appreciate your help. Thanks!

Thanks for the quick responses. At the time I wasn't using any drivers (had just assumed it would see it since it could see the SSD without SRT). Anyway, I grabbed the drivers (here), boot to Windows install disc, load the driver from a flashdrive, and while all that goes smoothly, the SSD...

I tried this in conjunction with what the OP stated with no luck. I install W7 to a HDD, enable SRT with ~18GB, but when I go to install W7 in the remaining space on the SSD, the SSD never appears on the drive list. Yes, I've tried unplugging every other SATA device on my mobo. What am I...
