w2k install question.

[pipes456]

When i go to install w2k, it asks me for some kind of driver so it can access the HD. I think it has something to do with my MB (A7V133) supporting RAID 0. What do i have to do?

Put the promise 100 drivers on a floppy, then hit F6 when it prompts you at the beginning of the install.

OK. i will try. thanks.

Easiest way is to download the Promise drivers off Asus's website for the A7V133, then unzip to a floppy.

An easier way to solve this is to change which IDE connectors you have the hard drive hooked up to. The two top ones are regular ATA/100 and the lower two are the RAID ones. If you don't use the bottom ones, this won't be an issue.

crt1530,

If he does that he will lose his array,if he's running raid 0 right now.
