Unable to load driver for a RAID set of HD during XP setup

[Guest]

This is on a brand new, just built desktop, no previous operating system.
After you insert the Windows CD, You are instructed to hit F6 during boot up,
then you are prompted to stick in the floppy that you created from the Mother
Board CD disk, but it says cannot find txtsetup.oem. The name of the driver
according to the Motherboard Manufacturer is F6flpy32.exe So I tried renaming
F6flpy32.exe to txtsetup.oem and the blinkin XP says it still can't find
txtsetup.oem. XP set up says I don't have any hard drives and closes the
installation process.

Did you run the F6flpy32.exe program to expand the file and
then save that expanded file on the floppy?

Just a thought, but have you seen this?
314859 - Limited OEM driver support is available with F6 during Windows XP
and Windows Server 2003 setup

Alas operator error,

I had been copying the driver file from the motherboard cd without opening
it. I was supposed to double click the file, then it asks me to insert a
floppy, then it creates the driver disk which worked great. thanks to all who
replied
