    If you are installing XP, you need to have the SATA RAID drivers on a USB floppy drive (that came with the system), press F6 when XP setup tell you to install SCSI, Third-party, etc... drives.

    Or you slipstream the SATA RAID drivers onto the XP CD with nLite... then you would not have to deal with floppies or extra discs.
