mb has onboard raid ( promise technology)


hdd setting is master in both, also both have dedicated ide conections , and both are formated in full manual says there is a floppy to load drivers for promise , floppy did not come with my contents ??? cd/dvd combo is set at master in primary connector.



thanx agin for yor help oohhh... tried getting raid progam of cd utility but window xp won't accept anything but floppy ..also tried using my other comp to transfer data to floppy but my cd player freezes on that utility .. 😕
 
take the drivers off the cd & put them on the floppy, there are instructions on cd that came with MB about setting it up..
also there is an in depth post here with detailed instructions for that board & XP may need to do a search for it..
when the first bios screen appears you see the discs <operational> the * means they are bootable hit f6 to load the drivers off the floppy.. then finish loading XP..
i had to use ntfs w 2 x 80gb maxtors or 2 120gb WDs fat32 wouldnt format no matter how i played with it even using partition magic 7 & volume manager..
