B. Installing Windows Vista The procedure below assumes that only one RAID array exists in your system. For the AMD SB850: Step 1: Restart your system to boot from the Windows Vista setup disk and perform standard OS installation steps. When a screen similar to that below appears (RAID hard drive will not be detected at this stage), select Load Driver (Figure 4). Step 2: Figure 4 Insert the motherboard driver disk (Method A) or the removable storage device such as USB flash drive that contains the SATA RAID/AHCI driver (Method B), then specify the location of the driver (Figure 5). Note: For users using a SATA optical drive, be sure to copy the driver files from the motherboard driver disk to a USB flash drive before installing Windows Vista (go to the BootDrv folder and save the whole SB8xxV folder to the USB flash drive). Then use Method B to load the driver. Method A: Insert the motherboard driver disk into your system and browse to the following directory: \BootDrv\SB8xxV\RAID\LH For Windows Vista 64-bit, browse to the LH64A folder. Method B: Insert the USB flash drive containing the driver files and browse to the LH (for Windows Vista 32-bit) or LH64A (for Windows Vista 64-bit) folder. Figure 5 - 91 - Appendix

Step 2:
Insert the motherboard driver disk (Method A) or the removable storage device such as USB flash drive that
contains the SATA RAID/AHCI driver (Method B), then specify the location of the driver (Figure 5). Note: For
users using a SATA optical drive, be sure to copy the driver files from the motherboard driver disk to a USB
flash drive before installing Windows Vista (go to the
BootDrv
folder and save the whole
SB8xxV
folder to
the USB flash drive). Then use Method B to load the driver.
Method A:
Insert the motherboard driver disk into your system and browse to the following directory:
\BootDrv\SB8xxV\RAID\LH
For Windows Vista 64-bit, browse to the
LH64A
folder.
Method B:

LH64A
(for Windows Vista 64-bit) folder.
