11. Creating a RAID drive disk
A floppy disk with the RAID driver is required when installing Windows 2000/XP
operating system on a hard disk driver that is included in a RAID set. We have
offered a floppy on the package, if the floppy has been missed or damaged, you
can make a floppy disk with the RAID driver by yourself.
To creat a RAID driver disk:
a. Place the motherboard support CD in the optical drive.
b. When the Drivers menu appears, select the RAID driver disk you wish to
create:
Browse the contents of the support CD to locate the driver disk utility:
IT8212F RAID Driver Disk:
\ ChipDrv\ IDE\ Floppy Disk
c. Insert a formatted high-density floppy disk to the floppy disk driver.
d. Copy all of the files under the
Floppy Disk
document to the floppy disk.
e. After creating a RAID driver disk, eject the floppy disk, then write-protect it
to prevent computer virus infection.
