Making a SATA RAID/AHCI Driver Diskette

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. To copy the 

RAID/AHCI driver for Windows XP, copy all files in the 

\BootDrv\Hxp

 folder in the motherboard driver disk to 

your floppy disk. To install Windows 7/Vista, you also need to install the SATA RAID/AHCI driver during the OS 

installation. To copy the RAID/AHCI driver for Windows 7, copy the whole 

Hw7

 folder under the 

BootDrv

 folder 

in the motherboard driver disk to a USB flash drive. 

Installing the SATA RAID/AHCI Driver and Operating System

A. Installing Windows XP

Restart your system to boot from the Windows XP setup disk and press <F6> as soon as you see the message 

"Press F6 if you need to install a 3rd party SCSI or RAID driver."  Insert the floppy disk containing the SATA 

RAID/AHCI driver. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the driver that suits your operating system. When 

completed, proceed with the Windows XP installation. 

B. Installing Windows 7/Vista 

(The following instructions use Windows 7 as the example operating system.)

Boot from the Windows 7 setup disk and perform standard OS installation steps. When the screen requesting 

you to load the driver appears, select

 Browse

. Then browse to the USB flash drive that contains the driver and 

select the location of the driver. The locations of the drivers are as follows:

RAID driver for Windows 7 32-bit: Hw7\RAID\x86

RAID driver for Windows 7 64-bit: Hw7\RAID\x64

AHCI driver for Windows 7 32-bit: Hw7\AHCI\W7

AHCI driver for Windows 7 64-bit: Hw7\AHCI\W764A

After loading the driver, continue the OS installation.
