Good afternoon, all
I just finished installing a second SATA drive and configured it as RAID 0 as per m otherboard manual instructions. Using 2x WD800JD 80.0 GB drives, SATA II.
I have a floppy drive and made a driver disk for the In tel ICH8R RAID driver as required, and did the F6 install when running XP setup. It appeared to recognize the drivers, formatted the array as NTFS, installed the XP files.
I go to restart and I get BSOD upon rebooting. The second and subsequent times, I get the following message:
Reboot and Select Proper Boot Device
or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key
I cannot get it to boot from C:. I went through the XP installation again and this time there is no BSOD but I get the same message.
Both times, during XP setup, it asks for the RAID driver files with options to press ENTER-continue (does nothing) F3-quit ESC-ignore.
I tried ignoring and obviously it doesn't install so I'm still stuck. When I press ENTER it scanns the floppy but still asks me for the same file. I tried making a second floppy and stil have the same problem.
I am fresh out of ideas. Thanks in advance for any help!
