Hi,

Type services.msc in the Start ---> run box. The Services page will open. Locate the Intel Rapid Storage Technology service from the list of Services. Select the option to 'Start' the Service.

Let me know if further help is needed.

Thanks and regards,

Hi Rabita S,

I have similar problem, however in my case I noticed that the Intel RST service is not among the services listed in the system service. I have tried to re-install the IRST driver, but stil the same issue.
