GA_8KNXP Gigaraid

[FarDusty]

I am trying to set up my new computer with raid 0+1. I am trying to load win XP and I am stuck when I try to load the gigaraid drivers. I have Win XP disk in and I am where you are running insatlation and it asks you to put the floppy in to carry on, I select the win/2000_xp and I get this error message;

file\win2k_xp\iteraid.cyc caused an unexpected error (18) at line 2108 ind:\\xpclient\base\boot\setup\oemdisk.c.

How do I get this fixed, Thank You for help

FarDusty welcome to the forums, I'm no expert but I'll try.

You'll need to put the gigaraid drivers on floppy from CD supplied w/MB.
Did you press F6 when prompted to install raid drivers during XP install??
Put in floppy with gigaraid drivers when prompted, select those and you
should be good to go.

Yes I put drivers on a floppy from mb cd disk (I tryed that first) and when asked if I wanted to install raid device I pushed F6. When that didn't work I went to gigabyte and downloaded raid drivers from there. Suprize suprize I got that same message.

For last two days I have tryed to reconfig raid array in different ways auto Raid 0+1 and configuring it manually. Raid 0 setup as primary master and secondary master, Raid 1 setup as primary slave and secondary slave. I have also tryed many other combinations, with same result.

Maybe I'm just tired or something. Any help would be grate. Thank You Randy

Is raid function enabled in bios?? How many and what brand HDDs?? and you put ITE IDE not ICH5R SATA drivers on floppy,

Just to make sure I went to gigabyte and checked, I redownloaded ITe Raid controll drivers again, put them on a floppy and tried again. Suprize I got the same error message, so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if there is an error in the drivers. Again any help welcome. R

FarDusty, I looked over this and I had a bit of a problem when I was installing the RAID driver. My problem was that I couldn't even have the system find the drivers. So I figured it out and here is what I did.

Ok, here is what you need to do. In the root directory of "A" the files that you need there are: txtsetup.oem and iteraid. The second file is the criticial one later on during the installation.

Then you need to copy the directory structure of WIN2k_XP to the "A" drive exactly.

Also it is interesting that the file you mentioned is iteraid.cyc, when I looked at it on the file download as iteraid.sys. I don't know if is a typo on your part or that is the name of the file.

I hope this helps
