well I set up a raid 0 drive (2x160) for windows 8 and my regular 320gb drive for 7, and 8 runs fine but now 7 Bsod's during boot, it goes to the screen where the dots float around, then freezes and crashes. any help would be great.

EDIT: windows 7 boots fine if I turn off raid mode in my bios though.

This is to be expected as any hard-drive will BSOD windows if ran in raid mode that isn't actually in raid. Just turn raid mode off every time you dual boot. nothing you can do about it :(

then I can't ghost my windows 7 onto my raid 0 setup then, damn. is there a way that I can run only the two 160 drives in raid mode while leaving my 320 and 750 in non raid mode?

I don't believe so, but you can still access them through windows

the only solution I see to fix this is to get a boot able disk with some cloning software on it and move windows 7 from the 320 to a partition on the raid array that way.

Check which SATA port your 320GB drive is plugged in to. Motherboards have dedicated ports when the BIOS is in RAID mode. Try a higher number port such as 6-7 (depending on how many ports you have) Also it sounds like you installed your Windows 7 with RAID mode off and may have had it in IDE mode. When you switch back to RAID, the motherboard may default other ports to ACHI which may cause your bluescreen of death!
