Installing Driver

■ New Windows 7/ Vista / XP Installation

The following details the installation of the drivers while installing operating system.

1.When you start installing Windows XP, you may encounter a message stating, “Setup could not determine the type of one or more mass storage devices installed in your system”. If this is the case, then you are already in the right place and are ready to supply the driver. If this is not the case, then press F6 when prompted at the beginning of Windows setup.

2.Press the “S” key to select “Specify Additional Device”.

3.You should be prompted to insert a floppy disk containing the Intel® RAID driver into the A: drive.

Note: For Windows XP, you can use the USB floppy drive only.

For Windows Vista/ Windows 7 you can use CD/ DVD/ USB drive.

Important

Please follow the instruction below to make an “Intel® RAID Driver” for yourself.

Insert the MSI DVD into the DVD-ROM drive.

Click the “Browse DVD” on the Setup screen.

Copy all the contents in \\RAID\ Intel\ ICH10R\ floppy\ f6flpy32 or f6flpy64 to a format- ted floppy diskette.

The driver diskette for Intel® ICH10R RAID Controller is done.

4.For Windows Vista/ Windows 7:

During the Operating system installation, after selecting the location to install Vista / Windows 7 click on “Load Driver” button to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver.

5.When prompted, insert the floppy disk or media (CD/DVD or USB) you created in step 3 and press Enter.

6.You should be shown a list of available SCSI Adapters.

7.Select the appropriate Intel RAID controller and press ENTER.

8.The next screen should confirm that you have selected the Intel® RAID controller. Press ENTER again to continue.

9.You have successfully installed the Intel® Matrix Storage Manager driver, and Win- dows setup should continue.

10.Leave the disk in the floppy drive until the system reboots itself. Windows setup will need to copy the files from the floppy again after the RAID volume is formatted, and Windows setup starts copying files.
