IDE RAID Installation error

[TheGeek]

I followed my motherboard's manual's instructions for going into BIOS, enabling RAID and pressing F10 on the next reboot to set up an array. But after i did that, Windows XP loaded up and when I asked me which drive to install to, it showed 2 seperate drives. So I rebooted the system, loaded up Windows XP Installation but this time I pushed "F6" to load the RAID Driver Disk I had made. But when the Drive selection screen came up, it said it couldn't find any drives. I pressed "S" to search for one, and Windows told me to get the support disk that came with my motherboard. Problem is, the K8N-E doesn't come with a disk. I would greatly appreciate any help.

You'll need to create that diskette with a utility from the CD or download the latest version from your mobo makers website (recommended).

I did. It asked me to insert the support disk that came w/ the MB

It's gotta be a diskette, not a CD.

It's the standard mass storage driver diskette. It will have an oemsetup.inf in the root of it.

As Smilin said, you should be able to download the disk files from the mobo mfgr website and then copy them to a 3.5" floppy. They should include instructions on how to do all this.
