Often whilst the array is being rebuilt you will see no apparent disk
activity.
When I used onboard raid it was Silicon Image and when the array was being
rebuilt the only indication of this was in the raid bios screen, via a
'spinning curser' I had to continue in this screen until the rebuild had
been completed, I was then able to exit to win.
When you select the rebuild option does the detail satus change in any way?
ie is there any indication that the rebuild is in progress?
Depending on your disk size a rebuild could take up to 1 hour.
I currently use a raid card and if the raid is being rebuilt this is done in
the background and I can continue in win
without any apparent degredation/indication that it is rebuilding. (Though
my raid utility shows rebuild progress)

I had no problem progressing through the NVidia Raid bios settings.
In the Array List it showed the disks as ID 1 and ID 2 with ID 1 set
at Boot - YES; status for both was degraded.
Highlighted disk entry for ID 1 and hit Enter to access
Array Detail screen hit 'R' to rebuild which automatically returned me
to the Array List screen where I chose CTRL-X to exit, whereupon my
system continued booting into Windows.
Once in Windows there was no disk building activity, it would appear
that the rebuild function in the NVidia Raid bios setup does not work.
I recall trying this sometime in the past with the same result, before
my nephew sorted it, possibly he deleted the existing array and
recreated a new one whilst retaining the disk data.
Thanks once again for the suggestions will keep on checking websites
to see if I can glean any further info, although the obvious answer is
to try to get hold of my nephew! :-)
