Install the SATA RAID/AHCI driver and operating system With the correct BIOS settings, you are ready to install the operating system. Installing the Operating System As some operating systems already include RAID/AHCI driver, you do not need to install separate RAID/AHCI driver during the Windows installation process. After the operating system is installed, we recommend that you install all required drivers from the motherboard driver disk using "Xpress Install" to ensure system performance and compatibility. If the operating system to be installed requires that you provide additional SATA RAID/AHCI driver during the OS installation process, please refer to the steps below: 1. Copy the Hw10 folder under the \Boot folder in the driver disk to your USB thumb drive. 2. Boot from the Windows setup disk and perform standard OS installation steps. When the screen requesting you to load the driver appears, select Browse. 3. Insert the USB thumb drive and then browse to the location of the driver. The location of the drivers is as follows: \Hw10\RAID\x64 4. Select AMD-RAID Bottom Device first and click Next to load the driver. Then select AMD-RAID Controller and click Next to load the driver. Finally, continue the OS installation. Please visit GIGABYTE's website for details on configuring a RAID array. - 38 -
