    Friend: Do you have a spare PSU lying around?
    Me: No why?
    Friend: My PSU just blew up, I think the second 8800GTX might have been too much for it to handle
    Me: what PSU was that again?
    Friend: Antec 480w

    I think it's possibly to do so by loading the drivers during Windows setup from an USB stick, but it won't install the utility. On top of that, there's really no reason to. Just install windows first then update the driver and enjoy TRIM Be sure to enabled Write Back Caching in the utility for a nice speedboost

    Vista and Win7 support RAID directly. All you have to do is enable RAID in your BIOS and configure it in the setup screen afterward (press Ctrl I during start up). Then, proceed with the OS install. With older version Windows you have to load the RAID drivers from a separate drive during the OS install.

    (this is with Intel chipsets, no idea about AMD)
