Loading the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition Driver During Operating System Install R 11.2 Installation Using F6 Method When you start the installation of Windows* XP, you most likely will be presented with a message stating, 'Setup could not determine the type of one or more mass storage devices installed in your system'. If this occurs, the instructions below document how to install the RAID driver. To install the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition driver using the F6 installation method, complete the following steps: Note: After completing these steps and the operating system has been successfully installed, you will still need to install the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition by running the typical Setup.exe process. 1. Press F6 when prompted in the status line with the 'Press F6 if you need to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver' message at the beginning of Windows XP setup (during textmode phase). Note: After pressing F6, setup will temporarily continue loading drivers and then you will be prompted with a screen to load support for mass storage device(s). 2. Press the 'S' key to 'Specify Additional Device' 3. You will be prompted to 'Please insert the disk labeled Manufacturer-supplied hardware support disk into Drive A:' Once prompted, insert the floppy disk containing the following four files: IASTOR.INF, IASTOR.SYS, IASTOR.CAT, and TXTSETUP.OEM and press ENTER. Note: See Section 11.1 titled 'Instructions on Creating F6 Floppy Diskette' for instructions on how to extract these four files from the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition Setup.exe file. 4. After pressing ENTER, you should be presented with a list of available SCSI Adapters; it should list 'Intel(R) 82801ER Serial RAID Controller'. Select this entry and press ENTER. 5. The next screen should confirm that you have selected the Intel(R) RAID controller. Press ENTER again to continue. 6. At this point, you have successfully F6'ed in the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition driver and Windows XP setup should continue. Leave the floppy disk in the floppy drive until the system reboots itself. Windows* setup will need to copy the files from the floppy again to the Windows installation folders. Once Windows setup has copied these four files again, you should then remove the floppy diskette so that Windows setup can reboot as needed. 30 User's Manual
