IDE Controller

No you can quit setup after you installed the raid driver, at the part when it ask you if you want to install windows, press f3

"Use the Windows 2000 CD-ROM to start the computer, and then press F6 to install a third-party SCSI or RAID driver"... Quoted off a website.. If you do a search you will find it's F6...

That's Windows 2000 though, I am unsure what Windows XP asks you to do. However, you should see a message that say's something along those lines.

no, I was saying that when windows ask you to install xp, press f3 to quit (way after f6 to install raid) xp install so you can load the drivers without reinstalling xp
