Cannot install raid drivers via F6

[Guest]

Following a major virus infection, (I downloaded something I shouldn't have),
I have been trying to put XP on a machine that ran my home network with
Server 2003. I get the following error when trying to load the raid drivers
on pressing F6:

File txtsetup.oem caused an unexpected error (1024) at line 1747 in
d:\xpsprtm\base\boot\setup\oemdisk.c.

I get the same error message when I have tried to reload Server 2003. There
is no disk d: as far as I know. I have formatted the drives seperatley so
that they are totally clear, but no matter what I try, it still comes up with
the same message. I have downloaded the latest drivers from the DFi website
and they give the same message. The machine has been working fine for 18
months with a mirror drive based on two 75GB WD Raptors for the operating
system and programs and 4 300GB Maxtors in a Raid 5 array for data using the
motherboard raid arrays.

Any help with this will be much appreciated as I need to access some of the
data on the raid 5 array which did not backup correctly.

Thanks in advance

Sounds true to me.

No one wants to backup but everyone wants to restore!

D: would probably be youre cdrom with the installation cd in it,try
cleaning the
cd,use rubbing alcohol,as this is the exact same solution all the cd & dvd
cleaners
have in thier overpriced bottles...Also,chk youre connections.
