Configuring SATA Hard Drive(s) - 74 -
Figure 3
B. Installing Windows XP
Before installing Windows XP, connect a USB floppy disk drive to your computer first because you need to install
the SATA RAID/AHCI driver from a floppy disk that contains the driver during the OS installation. Without the
driver, the hard drive(s) may not be recognized during the Windows setup process. First, copy the driver from
the motherboard driver disk to a floppy disk. Refer to the methods below.
Method A:
•
For the AMD SB950, copy all files in the \BootDrv\Hxp folder to your floppy disk.
• For the Marvell
®
88SE9172 RAID mode, copy all files in the \BootDrv\Marvell\RAID\Floppy32 folder
to your floppy disk. (To install Windows 64-Bit, copy the files in the 64Bit folder.)
For AHCI mode, depending on whether you want to install the 32- or 64-bit version, copy the files in
the AHCI\Floppy32 or AHCI\Floppy64 folder.
Method B:
Steps:
1: Use an alternative system and insert the motherboard driver disk.
2: From your optical drive folder, double click the
Menu.exe file in the BootDrv folder. A Command Prompt
window will open similar to that in Figure 3.
3: Insert the blank formatted disk (if you're using a USB floppy disk drive, make sure it is designated as drive
A). Select the controller driver by pressing the corresponding letter from the menu and press <Enter>. For
example, from the menu in Figure 3,
•
For the AMD SB950 Chipset, select 6) hseries AHCI/RAID for XP
•
For the Marvell
®
88SE9172, select 5) Marvell RAID driver . (For AHCI drive(s), select Marvell AHCI
driver .)
Your system will then automatically copy the driver files to the floppy disk. Press any key to exit when finished.
