Hey, I'm need to install promise raid on my Ga 7vxap gigabyte motherboard. I've downloaded the chipsets drivers , raid drivers , and now i need to install it from the os disk by pressing (f6) at start up. i don't have any floppy disk , how can i bypass this floppy disk requirement to get some raid controllers on my pc?? By the way i'm running windows server 2003 with sql sever. thanx in advance.

Download and install this software. It will allow you you create a disk image that will have the drivers and the install files for the OS. You then take the image and burn it to a cd and boot the server from there.

Works great. Had to do this with some older HP servers that didn't have floppy drives but required that darn F6 for the raid controllers.

Have fun.
