Overclocking Inconvenience

Headline

Hey Friends,

I have tried multiple times to try to overclock, but If I mess up and press F1 to setup, it wipes my RAID 0 boot drive clean so it forces me to reinstall Windows 7. Is there any way that I can overclock without the risk of that drive getting reset again? That problem is keeping me away from overclocking.

When I change the SATA ports back to RAID It then takes me to a screen where it says that I have the raid "Working" but instead of the green arrows being on 2 disks like they are supposed to be, its only on one. So it removes one of the disks from the raid. Which evidently force me to remake the RAID 0, which formats it.

Sounds like doggy RAID controller on the mobo. Easier, just install on single drive with a basic Win7 setup - do all you testing and get your stable overclock. Then re-install with fresh copy on the RAID0 array...
