Ive searched the driver disk that came with my mainboard both from its menu and on the files on the disk and have yet to find a raid driver. perhaps its hidden under another driver? according to the amd raid driver installation guide i need to load the driver to a flash drive and upload/access it in the bios screen. I have a few hours presently to setup my raid array and install my operating system. im working out how to create a system image on my external hdd, but finding the actual raid driver has produced a goose egg.

is it possible i dont need a driver or can i download it elsewhere?
thanks

also, does the process start by entering bios and setting up the array or beginning windows install via the disk and setting it up then? i dont really remember a raid option during os install. i wasnt looking for it though... little vague on the exact details.
