I am trying to install WinXP 64 bit onto a new computer that I am building. I
have 2 300 gig SATA hard drives setup as a RAID. I also have a floppy disk
that has the driver/controller on it. Whenever I boot up the computer, the
WIN XP 64 CD loads and I press the F6 key while XP64 is loading drivers. XP
proceeds normally and then asks me to load in my RAID drivers so I load in
both drivers, it then proceeds to load the remaining files but stops or hangs
whenever it reaches the Setup is starting windows and will not proceed
further. Any help in getting this resolved would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Verify you have the latest drivers and/or supply specific information...

(Such as the specific RAID controller, motherboard, etc.)
 
Shenan,
Sorry, I should have been more clear. I should never send emails
late at night. I updated the bios on the motherboard on EVGAs website. While
I was there, I also downloaded the latest drivers for RAID, Audio, etc. I am
working on a EVGA 790i Ultra motherboard w/ P07 bios update, QX9650, GTX 280
video. I was wondering, Is there a specific order to load in the RAID driver
and controler software. I guess that I could remove the RAID and see if I can
install XP 64 or if it continue to hangs.

Thanks,
David
