DRIVER INSTALLATION After your computer's Operating System is installed, you will need to install drivers for your motherboard in order to gain full operation. Insert the Driver Installation CD into your computer's CD or DVD ROM drive and allow the autorun function to bring up the installation menu. If the autorun function is disabled on your computer, simply navigate to the CD or DVD ROM drive that the Driver Installation CD is located in and double-click the autorun.exe file. From the installation menu choose the following options that will install the following drivers: • NVIDIA Motherboard Drivers • Audio Driver After your computer finishes this installation, it will need to reboot in order for the new drivers to take effect. NOTE: If you are installing drivers under the Windows XP x64 operating system, please explore the Driver CD and navigate to \Drivers\NFORCE 64Bit\Chipset and run setup.exe. RAID INSTALLATION The drivers for the NVIDIA RAID controller are located on the included RAID DRIVER floppy disk. They can be installed either at the time of Operating System installation or after the operating system has already been installed on a conventional IDE drive. It is important to note that before you install and configure a RAID system, either after OS installation or during, you will need to enable RAID in your motherboard BIOS. To do this, reboot the computer and press the key as it starts, this will take you to the BIOS configuration screens. From there you will need to make changes as indicated in the BIOS PDF that you can find in the Manuals Section of the Installation CD. If you wish to install the SATA/RAID drivers at the same time you are installing the Operating System, simply wait for the Windows Installer to display "Press F6 if you need to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver...." - and press F6 at that time. Then insert the floppy disk and follow all of the on-screen instructions. NOTE: The included floppy disk with RAID drivers supports Windows XP (32 bit version) and Windows 2000 only. If you are installing RAID under Windows XP x64, you will need to make a RAID driver disk. We have made this very easy to do, simply follow the instructions listed below: EVGA Corporation 2900 Saturn St. Suite B, Brea, CA 92821 Phone: 888 / 881-EVGA - 714 / 528-4500 - Fax: 714 / 528-4501 Page 58
