Localized GUI issue with Intel Rapid Storage Technology

I have installed Intel® Rapid Storage Technology versioned 2015-08-28. I am trying to migrate from "RAID-Ready" to 3-disk RAID 5 using three 4 TB drives.

My issue is that when I go into the second step in creating the volume, check all the disks and get asked if I want to keep the data on any of the disks.

There are no visible controls, no radio buttons, nothing that actually lets me select the drive that I want to keep the data on. This seems to be an issue with my language-specific version of IRST since I have seen screenshots of it working in the English localization. I am running IRST in Swedish, since that is the OS language. I attach a screenshot of how it looks for me.

Downgrading does not solve the issue; all of the publicly available versions seem to be affected by this issue.

I found some rather well-hidden command-line options that kan be passed to the installer to change the language but it only seems to affect the language used in the installer itself, not IRST when installed.

Were you able to migrate to Raid 5?

What is the computer chipset model?

Please bear in mind that RAID level migrations do not require re-installation of the operating system. All applications and data remain intact.
