install device drivers when installing WinXP

A

~~Alan~~

I have a HighPoint RocketRaid 1640 controller that I want to install on my
Dell Dimentsion 4600 and create a Raid Level-1 array with 2 SATA disks.
When I begin my fresh install of Windows XP onto my raid array, I'm asked to
press F6 to install the controller's drivers but I do not have a Floppy disk
drive.

Is it possible to slip stream the drivers into a bootable installation CD
similar slip streaming a service pack into an installation? If yes, what
are the step by step detailed instructions?

Thanks,
~alan
