Installing an operating system

To install an OS, download the SATA RAID driver and create a driver diskette with the software and instructions from the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support).

Installing a supported Microsoft® Windows® OS

1.Insert the OS CD and reboot the system.

2.When prompted, press the F6 key to install a third-party driver.

NOTE: Press F6 within 5 seconds to enable the system to recognize the controller. If the system fails to recognize the controller, restart this procedure.

3.Insert the SATA RAID driver diskette created earlier. The system prompts the next action.

4.Press the S key to specify the driver from the diskette. Then, press the Enter key. The OS searches the diskette for a suitable driver.

5.After locating the Adaptec Embedded Serial ATA HostRAID driver, press Enter.

6.Follow the remaining on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
