B. Installing Windows XP
To install Windows XP, you need to install the SATA RAID/AHCI driver during the OS installation. Without the
driver, the hard drive(s) may not be recognized during the Windows setup process. First, copy the driver from
the motherboard driver disk to a floppy disk. Refer to the methods below.
Method A:
• For the Intel ICH10R, copy all files in the \BootDrv\iRST\32Bit folder to your floppy disk. To install Win-
dows 64-Bit, copy the files in the 64Bit folder.
• For the JMicron JMB362, copy all files in the \BootDrv\GSATA\32Bit folder to your floppy disk. To install
Windows 64-Bit, copy the files in the 64Bit folder.
• For the Marvell 88SE9182, copy all files in the \BootDrv\Marvell\RAID folder to your floppy disk.
For AHCI mode, depending on whether you want to install the 32- or 64-bit version, copy the files in the
AHCI\Win32 or AHCI\win64 folder.
Method B:
Steps:
1: Use an alternative system and insert the motherboard driver disk.
2: From your optical drive folder, double click the Menu.exe file in the BootDrv folder. A Command Prompt
window will open similar to that in Figure 3.
3: Insert the blank formatted disk. Select the controller driver by pressing the corresponding letter from the
menu and press <Enter>. For example, from the menu in Figure 3,
• For the Intel ICH10R, select 8) Intel Rapid Storage driver for 32bit system for Windows XP 32-bit op-
erating system.
• For the JMicron JMB362, select 3) GIGABYTE GSATA driver for 32bit system for Windows XP 32-bit
operating system.
• For the Marvell 88SE9182, select 7) Marvell RAID driver. (For AHCI drive(s), select Marvell AHCI
driver.)
Your system will then automatically copy the driver files to the floppy disk. Press any key to exit when finished.
