After installing windows on my RAID 0 partition, whenever it restarts, it takes significantly longer or doesn't restart at all? and after I power it off, it starts and doesn't give me a display output. After a second attempt, it proceeds to the bios and says the overclocking has failed. Another restart and it boots.

Also the boot time is increased to 15.8 seconds compared to running a single drive configuration which gave me 4.5 seconds boot time.

Is there anyway to fix these issues?

Are you use Legacy RAID ROM as your raid setup?

If so each time the computer boots it needs to scan for drive>locate array>check array>load OS. I have two SSD's in RAID0 and I have to do this every bootup. But it doesn't bother me tbh. As for the OC fails I am not sure on that one :(

OC fails are probably unrelated. Return to stock settings, should fix.

As for trouble starting, if the drives are SSDs it's probably a controller problem - I find SSD controllers often have this thing where they don't show up in the BIOS sometimes and aren't detected. Obviously this can cause failure to boot if they're the boot drive, and with RAID 0 the probability of one failing to show and therefore failing to boot is doubled. Changing the SATA mode and/or disabling fast boot may help, but it may just be something you're stuck with, depending on the controller your drive uses. OCZ is particularly renowned for this problem.

If it's a HDD array it will probably be fixed by changing the SATA settings (consult your motherboard manual if it's chipset RAID).
