Alright, starting off, I'm not that computer literate, however, I am familiar
with putting comps together and some tech info. Though I'm at a halt.
Everything hardware-wise is connected properly in my comp. (My system is at
the bottom)
I am trying to go through Windows XP Pro setup (the 6 floppy disk setup from
www.microsoft.com/) as well as setting up my SATA drivers through another
floppy so that my hard disk drive will be picked up. I go through three
floppies of the windows xp setup and half way through the fourth floppy, it
basically asks me to put the floppy in that has my drivers. After windows
setup asks me for the driver disk, it reads the floppy and then it gives me
the screen to where i'd have to press the 's' key to choose the third party
drivers i want to load. I hit 's' and it continues with two choices:
NVIDIA RAID CLASS DRIVER
{and}
NIVIDIA NForce Storage Controller
I was wondering if there is a certain order I have to load these, or if I
only need one, or what. If you could help me, I'd very much appreciate it!
What happened first is I chose only the NVIDIA RAID CLASS DRIVER. Before the
end of the fourth windows setup floppy disk, it gives me the error:
'nvraid.sys not found' I've checked the floppy with the SATA drivers on it,
and surely enough, it does have nvraid.sys; is there a problem here?? and how
bad??
