Installing the SATA RAID/AHCI Driver and Operating System
With the correct BIOS settings, you are ready to install the operating system.
Installing the Operating System
As some operating systems already include Intel
®
SATA RAID/AHCI driver, you do not need to install separate
RAID/AHCI driver during the Windows installation process. After the operating system is installed, we recommend
that you install all required drivers from the motherboard driver disk using "Xpress Install" to ensure system
performance and compatibility. If the operating system to be installed requires that you provide additional SATA
RAID/AHCI driver during the OS installation process, please refer to the steps below:
1. Copy the
IRST
folder under
\Boot
in the driver disk to your USB thumb drive.
2. Boot from the Windows setup disk and perform standard OS installation steps. When the screen requesting
you to load the driver appears, select
Browse
.
3.
Then browse to the USB lash drive and select the location of the driver. The location of the driver is as
follows: \IRST\f6lpy-x64
4. When a screen as shown, select
Intel Chipset SATA RAID Controller
and click
Next
to load the driver and
continue the OS installation.

Installation Guidelines
A-1: Installation in AHCI mode
If the SATA controller has been conigured in AHCI mode, please follow the steps below:
1. After entering the operating system, insert the motherboard driver disk into your optical drive. On the Xpress
Install screen, select
Intel(R) Optane(TM) Memory System Acceleration
(Note)
to install. Follow the on-screen
instructions to continue. The system will auto-restart.
2. After re-entering the operating system, the dialog box as shown above will appear. Click
Yes
to continue the
installation and then restart the system.
3.
Launch the Intel(R) Optane Memory application from the Start menu. A message which says Intel
®
Optane
™
Memory is disabled will appear on the main screen. Click
Enable
to activate the Intel
®
Optane
™
Memory
and restart the system again.
4.
Launch the Intel(R) Optane Memory application from the Start menu and make sure the Intel

Optane
™
Memory has been enabled. (The SATA controller mode is changed to Intel RST Premium With Intel Optane
System Acceleration from AHCI mode. DO NOT change your SATA controller mode back to AHCI. Doing so
will prevent Intel
