Windows XP installation from raid card

G

Guest

Hi,

I'm installing windows xp on a pc that has 2 hard drives configured in raid 0.
When I'm in the begining of windows xp installation I press F6 to install a
controller card where the hard drives are connected, but I only have the
drivers in CD, but windows will only read the drivers from floppy.
There is any way of windows reads the cd of drivers?

You could add the drivers to a modified version of the CD.
