I think I had issues like this before. It was something with uefi and the pcie slot. Do you have any settings for the pcie slot it's plugged into. Also did you try configuring from the shell? You can boot to the uefi shell and run megaraid from the terminal
What motherboard do you have? I forget what it's called but it requires a certain feature to pass through to the controller.
