You might need UEFI Windows 8.1 USB installer, thats what i had to do to get it work in my Asus X99-E WS work machine.

Hi all,

 

So I've built myself a computer (Build Log in the signature) And I can't seem to get windows to install on an SSD Raid.

Right now, I have 2 Intel 730 SSD's in RAID 0 with an ASUS X99 E WS.

 

Here is the error I get: 

 

Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computers Hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disks controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS Menu.

 

What do I have to do for this?

 

Cheers!

 

Edit: It should also be noted that the SSD's are in the Intel Controller and not the as media one
