If you want to install Windows

2000, Windows

XP or Windows

XP 64-bit OS on

your SATA / SATAII HDDs with RAID functions, you need to make a SATA / SATAII
driver diskette before you start the OS installation.

STEP 1: Insert the ASRock Support CD into your optical drive to boot your system.

(Do NOT insert any floppy diskette into the floppy drive at this moment!)

STEP 2: During POST at the beginning of system boot-up, press <F11> key, and

then a window for boot devices selection appears. Please select CD-
ROM as the boot device.

STEP 3: When you see the message on the screen, “Do you want to generate

Serial ATA driver diskette [YN]?”, press <Y>.

STEP 4: Then you will see these messages,

Please insert a diskette into the floppy drive.

WARNING! Formatting the floppy diskette will

lose ALL data in it!

Start to format and copy files [YN]?

Please insert a floppy diskette into the floppy drive, and press <Y>.

STEP 5: The system will start to format the floppy diskette and copy SATA /

SATAII drivers into the floppy diskette.

Once you have the SATA / SATAII driver diskette ready, you may start to install
Windows

2000 / Windows

XP / Windows

XP 64-bit on your system directly without

setting the RAID configuration on your system, or you may start to use “RAID Instal-
lation Guide” to set RAID 0 / RAID 1 / RAID 0+1 / JBOD / RAID 5 configuration before
you install the OS. Before you start to configure the RAID function, you need to check
the installation guide in the Support CD for proper configuration. Please find the document,
“Guide to SATA Hard Disks Installation and RAID Configuration”, at the following path in
the Support CD:

After making a SATA / SATAII driver diskette, you can start to install Windows

XP 64-bit OS on your system. At the beginning of

Windows

setup, press F6 to install a third-party SCSI or RAID driver. When prompted,

insert a floppy disk containing the ULi

RAID driver. After reading the floppy disk, the

driver will be presented. Select the driver to install according to the mode you choose
and the OS you install.
