B. Installing Windows Vista
The procedure below assumes that only one RAID array exists in your system.
For the AMD SB850:
Step 1:
Restart your system to boot from the Windows Vista setup disk and perform standard OS installation steps.
When a screen similar to that below appears (RAID hard drive will not be detected at this stage), select Load
Driver (Figure 4).
Step 2:
Insert the motherboard driver disk (Method A) or the removable storage device such as USB flash drive that
contains the SATA RAID/AHCI driver (Method B), then specify the location of the driver (Figure 4). Note: For
users using a SATA optical drive, be sure to copy the driver files from the motherboard driver disk to a USB
flash drive before installing Windows Vista (go to the BootDrv folder and save the whole SBxxxV folder to
the USB flash drive). Then use Method B to load the driver.
Method A:
Insert the motherboard driver disk into your system and browse to the following directory:
\BootDrv\SBxxxV\RAID\LH
For Windows Vista 64-bit, browse to the LH64A folder.
Method B:
Insert the USB flash drive containing the driver files and browse to the LH (for Windows Vista 32-bit) or
LH64A (for Windows Vista 64-bit) folder.
