GA-8I925X-G

Hello,
I am looking for the GA-8I925X-G raid drivers. I have done google
searches, tried to copy from the cd, and even tried some drivers from
my buddy's board (yea real helpful).

here are the instructions:

4.2 PRE-INSTALLATION USING THE F6 METHOD FROM A FLOPPY DISK

1. Extract all driver files from the installation package.
See Section 6 for instructions on extracting the files.

2. Create a floppy containing the iaStor.inf, iaStor.sys,
iaStor.cat and TxtSetup.oem files in the root directory.

3. At the beginning of the operating system setup, press F6
to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver.

4. When prompted, select 'S' to Specify Additional Device.

5. When prompted, insert the floppy disk you created and
press enter.

6. At this point you should be presented with a selection
for "Intel(R) RAID Controller". Highlight this selection
and press enter.

7. Press enter again to continue. Leave the floppy disk in
the system until the next reboot as the software will
need to be copied from the floppy disk again when setup
is copying files.

My main problem is getting past step two. I downloaded all the raid
drivers from the website. One has ???? on the buttons and the other
does not have iaStor.inf, iaStor.sys, iaStor.cat and TxtSetup.oem on
it. I also tried to browse the whole cd with no luck.


I am so frustrated. Please if you can help let me know.

You could probably get a driver from Intel.com.
