I have an A7V133 (1.05) and I am trying to install WinXP Pro on to the RAID controller, however Windows setup states that there are no HDD attatched to the computer. During boot, the array is identified and functional, and it can be accessed by booting from a floppy. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks much.

Windows XP won't see my raid either and I have Epox 8K7A+ which I believe has a different raid controller than you have. No one has been able to help me out so welcome to the land of un-answered/un-solved questions/problems (wow could that be any more confusing?) :smile:

You need to hit some function button (F6?) when XP is performing the setup. There is a message at the bottom of the screen that says to hit this function button if you need to load Raid or SCSI drivers. You will also need a driver disk (with WIN XP drivers) for your Raid controller. Put this disk in when XP asks for it and you will be set.
