A floppy disk with the RAID driver is required when installing Windows

®

2000/XP operating system on a hard disk drive that is included in a RAID

set.
To create a RAID driver disk:

1. Place the motherboard support CD into the CD-ROM drive.
2. Select Make Disk tab.
3. From the Make Disk menu, select the RAID driver disk you want to

create or browse the contents of the support CD to locate the driver

disk utility.

For detailed descriptions on the NVIDIA

®

RAID configuration, refer to the

“NVIDIA

®

MediaShield RAID User’s Manual” found in your motherboard

support CD .

4. Insert floppy disk to floppy disk drive.
5. Follow succeeding screen information to complete process.
6. Write-protect the floppy disk to avoid computer virus infection.

To install the RAID driver:

1. During the OS installation, the system prompts you to press the F6

key to install third-party SCSI or RAID driver.

2. Press <F6> then insert the floppy disk with RAID driver into the floppy

disk drive.

Due to chipset limitation, the Serial ATA ports supported by the NVIDIA

chipset doesn’t support Serial Optical Disk Drives (Serial ODD) under

DOS.
