Raid 0 on P55 under windows XP

[Bob_44]

I noticed the p55 boards come with no floppy A. How or can you set up the raid 0 without the raid drivers needed during install provided via the floppy disk.

One method is to "Slipstream" your XP install disk with the required drivers.

Works great - did it with mine, Integrated service pak 2 and 3, Plus the raid drivers with a pre service pack xp install disk.

Google "slipstream". Here is one method:

I think some of the P55 boards still have a FDD connector - Mine does (Gigabytye P55-UM4P) AND olso have a connectors for a serial/parallel port (have to add a bracket to the outside world).

Put the drivers on bootable usb
