installing win xp using raid controller but no disk drive??

[imported_Kane3030]

i just built myself a new computer but it doesn't have any floppy drives. how can i install the raid drivers during installation without a floppy drive? i have dual dvd drives, is there a way to put the drivers on a cd in the other drive while the xp cd is in the other?

I'm not aware of a way to make Windows Setup think another drive is a floppy, and it's pretty adamant about reading extra drivers from the floppy drive. It may be easiest to put a drive in just for setup purposes, if you have one lying around or can borrow or cannibalize one temporarily.

I don't remember if you can slipstream drivers onto a Windows disk, but it might be worth Googling for.
