RAID 0 for a RAID configuration not "this computer's hardware may not supported booting from this drive.

I want to install a new HARD drive in a tower of the mine to a friend. It was initially created as a RAID 0 configuration with two 160 GB HDD. The replacement is a single 1 TB of HARD drive. I get the message "this computer's hardware may not supported booting to this disk.» Am I missing an approach from a RAID 0 for a RAID configuration, no?

Hi RegularPencils,

I suggest that you check in the basic input/output system (BIOS), if you find an option to disable the RAID. If you find, disable the RAID and try to install Windows vista, check if it helps.

Important: Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

Error message when you try to install Windows Vista on a computer that contains multiple RAW hard disks: "Windows cannot find a system volume that meets its criteria for installation.

    Hi n m,

    Boot you from the DVD to start the installation, or have you started the installation in the existing version of Windows?

    I would like to know if you want to perform a new installation or an upgrade installation.

    You can not install Windows on an unallocated partition, if you install vista on brand\fresh the new hard disk, you will need to create partitions on the hard disk.

    Method 1:  Format the partition and then try to install Windows Vista.

    Important: The applications on the computer and all data will be lost when you format (New Installation) of the partition.

    Method 2: You can follow the steps mentioned in the article below

  • This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk

    I get the error message "this computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk" when you try to install Windows Vista on a Western Digital Scorpio 640 Gb SATA hard drive in my laptop Q320.  The laptop works very well with WD Scorpio 320 GB hard drives.  I formatted the disk in the installation procedure and use Diskpart to create a partition/format etc, but still no luck.  I have only one disk in the machine.  Can someone advise. Thank you

    Are you sure you are using the correct bit size on the disk (32-bit or 64-bit) depending on your computer?  Download and check things with the Vista Upgrade Advisor:http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Windows-Vista-Upgrade-Advisor-Download-40277.html (although I suppose that it is is not possible if you have already formatted the drive) and at least check the different devices and installed the software in Vista Compatibility Center: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-vista/.

    Here is an article on this specific problem with recommended solutions: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925481/en-us.  Note that it says may be a problem with the BIOS (the installation or version) - so you should check the settings and then contact the manufacturer of the computer for the updates that you can install.

    I hope this helps.

    Your system should boot from a bootable USB key, as long as you select in the BIOS or at the time of booting as a device to boot from.
