Raid drivers on Vista

[Xeonophon]

Im just wondering what raid drivers (setting up raid 0) i need to install onto my flash USB so i can install them with the new Vista OS. Do i just copy the "RAID_Vista64" ( i have vista 64bit) file on to the USB and then use that file to install the drivers form? or do i only need a certain part of that file?

Is VISTA already installed? What motherboard chip do you have? As the raid drivers can be different.

i have not installed vista yet, and the mother chip is nVidia 680i, the motherbaord i have is Asus p5n32-e sli

Ok, then what you need to do.

The latest driver for that board is: RAIDnVDIA116_Vista.zip A huge file, hope your not on dial up.

It's a zip file, the server was busy so I could not download. Once downloaded, unzip to a folder, there should be a TXT readme file in there that gives the instructions on how to make the driver files ready to load, You should be able to put on the USB stick, then when it asks for the drivers, stick in the stick, VISTA should find and load.

i downlaoded that file yesturday, but there is not txt inside just an Nvidia folder which contains the Raid_vista32,Raid_vista64, AsusSetup.exe and AsusSetup.ini. i extracted the files, so do i need to remove the Raid_vista32 file if im not using 32bit edition and leave the Raid_vista64 file along with AsusSetup application?

I would double click on the AsusSetup.exe and you should get a choice where to put it, lead it to your pen drive.
