Making a SATA RAID Driver Diskette

Copy the driver for the SATA controller from the motherboard driver disk to a oppy disk (for Windows XP) or

a USB ash drive (for Windows 7/Vista). For example, to copy the RAID driver for Windows XP 32-bit operat-

ing system, copy the driver from the following directory to your oppy disk: \BootDrv\SBxxx\x86. (To install

Windows 64-bit, copy the les in the x64 folder.)

Installing the SATA RAID Driver and Operating System

A. Installing Windows XP

Before installing Windows XP, connect a USB oppy disk drive to your computer. Restart your system to boot

from the Windows XP setup disk and press <F6> as soon as you see the message "Press F6 if you need to

install a 3rd party SCSI or RAID driver." Insert the oppy disk containing the SATA controller driver. Follow

the on-screen instructions to install the two drivers displayed. When completed, proceed with the Windows

XP installation.

B. Installing Windows 7/Vista

Restart your system to boot from the Windows 7/Vista setup disk and perform standard OS installation steps.

Select Load Driver. Insert the oppy disk/USB ash drive (for users using a SATA optical drive) containing the

driver or insert the motherboard driver disk. For Windows 32-bit, browse to \BootDrv\SBxxxW7\RAID\W7 to

load the driver and continue the OS installation. For Windows 64-bit, browse to \BootDrv\SBxxxW7\RAID\

W764A to load the driver and continue the OS installation.
