Y boot to the disc or USB drive, and continue with the installation to the disk management page. Create your partitions here and you will be properly aligned. Close the installer at this screen after creating your partitions--if you click next, it will go ahead and install Windows.
but then I would have to do a new install.... right? and I just want to keep my current windows 7.
I guess I could temporarily install vista on the D partition logical... then create the RAID 0, boot into Vista, create the partition with Vista, and then just copy the files from the existing primary partition to the new RAID-0.... then use Paragon Partition software to mark the RAID 0 active, change the boot drive in the BIOS and boot off the windows 7 DVD to restore the boot sector... whew a big hassle....
you sure I can't just boot off the Acronis 2010 rescue CD and restore the image file? Maybe I should ask Acronis.
