Okay I've been a long time "troller" on this site, and come here and search if i run into problems, people here seem pretty smart and helpful.
I have just bought a new Alienware laptop m17x being a jackass i tried to OC it in the BIOS. (yes it was my first time) basically it did not work and then i went back and restored to system defaults and now it is saying there is no OS found... I went and tried to boot from win7 CD but when i get to the install screen it wont let me instal it BUT there is only 1 of the 2 HDs available....however in the BIOS i see 2, 0 and 4 i believe (i'm not sure if this is only 1 real hard drive and maybe a recover drive) the drives were in RAID 0 (2 500gb) and i think maybe 1 of the hard drive gave out (i'm not sure) and maybe the OS was split is the HD's? I need to get this resolved but I know Dell will take forever, and I'm on a VERY tight schedule so I will give a reward to the person who helps me out ( around $40 either ebay gift , paypal, or $$ via mail) to the person who can take a few hours and help me out with this....
I am in the US Military and will stand by that!!.. also I am no computer einstein but i can figure things out usually easy.
notes:
i cannot boot in safe mode since the windows loading screen doesnt pop up
