I just got brand new Hypersonic Aviator EX7 notebook but having some problem. It has two blank hard drives and it's on Raid 0/Stripe mode. So I pressed F6 key during Windows XP setup screen to install Raid driver. I copied the Raid driver on floppy disk and inserted on a USB external floppy drive. Then pressed "S" key when asked to Specify Additional Device. And then problem occurs;this error message shows up:

File \ Winxp\ fasttx2k.sys caused an unexpected error (18) at line
2108 in d:\ xpclient\ base\ boot\ setup\ oemdisk.c.

Anyone who's expert at setting up Raid mode, please help me out. Thanks in advance.:thumbsup:

Try downloading a copy of the driver from the manufacturer's HP or make sure you copy all the files into floppy. I had this problem before on a Gigabyte mobo and come to find out from their HP there was a problem with the driver and downloaded a new one.

And how did you fix it? Did you download latest driver for the raid controller or something?

Yeah, just downloaded the newest driver...make sure to use new floppy disk...

Make sure SATA RAID is enabled in the BIOS...

I am monitoring this tread so post if you continue to have problems...
