[Solved] Can't see GPT disk partitions in Windows 7 (64-bit)

Question

I just added 2 new disks and had them set up equally with GPT and equal partitions, to use the partitions as RAID1 in Arch, and the rest of the storage for Windows. It works as expected in Linux (I guess), but Windows shows them as uninitialized.
Can this be due to the fact that I created the GPT and partitions using fdisk? Caus' gdisk can't see any partitions either when I start it. If so, is there any way to convert it or do I need to redo everything?
The output of "fdisk -l" shows this:
Disk /dev/sdc: 1.8 TiB
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disklabel type: gpt
Disk identifier: xxx-random-identidifier-xxx
Device Start End Sectors Size Type
/dev/sdc1 2048 xx xx 1.6T Linux RAID
Disk /dev/sdd: 1.8 TiB
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disklabel type: gpt

Added a Windows partition now. Still the same.
In Windows it looks like this:

Output from gdisk -l:
# gdisk -l /dev/sdc
GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 1.0.0
Partition table scan:
MBR: protective
BSD: not present
APM: not present
GPT: present
Found valid GPT with protective MBR; using GPT.
Disk /dev/sdc: 3907029168 sectors, 1.8 TiB
Logical sector size: 512 bytes
Disk identifier (GUID): xxx-random-identidifier-xxx
Partition table holds up to 128 entries
First usable sector is 2048, last usable sector is 3907029134
Partitions will be aligned on 2048-sector boundaries
