Installation Tips 

1. 

As Windows XP x64 can’t recognize the MegaRAID SAS 8204ELP, you need 
to make a driver diskette from the EasyBUILD 7.1 build 600 first before 
the installation. 

2. 

Press F6 at the beginning of installation for providing the driver diskette 
for the onboard SATA RAID. 

3. 

Select “LSI Logic Embedded MegaRAID (Windows XP/2003 64-bit)” as 
target driver 

4. 

After loading the SATA RAID driver from the diskette, follow the normal 
procedure to finish the installation. 

Chipset Driver Package Installation  

The chipset driver installation is the same as LSI MegaRAID SAS 8708ELP 
installed. Please refer to the Windows XP Professional x64 Edition SP2 
Installation (with LSI MegaRAID SAS 8708ELP) Chipset Driver Installation 
section. 

Gigabit Ethernet Driver Installation 

The Gigabit Ethernet driver is included in the chipset driver package. The 
Gigabit Ethernet driver would be installed automatically when you installing 
the chipset driver package. 

VGA Driver Installation (onboard XGI Z9s) 

The XGI Z9s driver installation is the same as LSI MegaRAID SAS 8708ELP 
installed. Please refer to the Windows XP Professional x64 Edition SP2 
Installation (with LSI MegaRAID SAS 8708ELP) XGI Z9s Driver Installation 
section. 

VGA Driver Installation (ATI FireGL V5200) 

The ATI FireGL V5200 driver installation is the same as LSI MegaRAID SAS 
8708ELP installed. Please refer to the Windows XP Professional x64 Edition SP2 
Installation (with LSI MegaRAID SAS 8708ELP) ATI FireGL V5200 Driver 
Installation section. 

RAID Utility Installation 

The MegaRAID Storage Manager installation for MegaRAID SAS 8204ELP is the 
same as LSI MegaRAID SAS 8708ELP installed. Please refer to the Windows XP 
Professional x64 Edition SP2 Installation (with LSI MegaRAID SAS 8708ELP) RAID
