Default I Can't seem to get RAID 0 working right..

Now I should start off by saying I can;t be positive this is the RAID set-up or my OS being bugged up..

I've set up raid 0 with two exactly same drives. At least... as far as I know. It's under "nVidia Stripe." It works fine, boots and doesn;t crash or anything, however every once in a while there's odd files missing. Like sometimes I'll start up FireFox and it will act as if it's my first time ever running it. Sometimes my settings are all wacked out.

Also, my computer refuses to go into sleep mode. It's the oddest thing, but it's stopping me from doing a few things. (BTW, running Vista 32-bit)

I can;t install Crysis, the C++ redistributable fails no matter what, and no matter what method or work around I use.

Whenever windows has a HotFix to install, it will look like it's successful, but at the last second it will fail.

It also won't detect it's own drivers, like when I plug in a USB device, it will ask for mass storage drivers when they're right in the **** System32 lol.

Maybe I'm setting up the RAID wrong, or maybe it's the OS. I'm not sure. If anyone has a sucessful set up on an ASUS Striker Extreme running Vista 32, let me know!

(I have not installed any drivers other then what was already there for the RAID. No SILICONE drivers or anything else.)

Thanks in advance

making guesses
disable write caching?
using the appropriate drivers?

i was trying searches that were nforce related and thought it could have also been something quirky with nvidias solution.
