    Welcome to the forum.

    If you boot to the TI CD, can it see the RAID 0 setup properly?

    You're also using an old build of TI 10. Build 4,942 may provide better support.

    Did you get this error after doing a restore or just after activating the ASRM?

    Tried the update,,,,,,,,,,Still does it...........

    guess I will just manually back up stuff or maybe do a disc clone right now, and at least will be able to start from this point which is fine with me.......

    Do you know if I will run into any probs cloning a raid 0 to a standard HD

    Did you reactivate the ASRM after you installed the update?

    Going from a RAID to a non-RAID setup can work. I think it has a better success rate that non-RAID to RAID.

    Yeah, I updated and formatted the backup drive again, made it a basic (active) disk then re-created the securezone, and activated the Recovery Manager,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,to no avail.

    Still Does it, I did notice that since this hard drive is connected to the Raid port on the MB it shows up as an array, and I do know I can only choose one of those array's to be bootable. Could this be my problem o_O

    If you're not using any RAID setups now, have you set the controller's mode to one other than RAID? It may help.

    I suspect that the ASRM booting code isn't correctly finding your drives. What chipset is in your computer?
