INSTALLATION
------------
Installing the Driver in a New Windows System: 
In this scenario, you are installing the driver in a new system that has no operating system. To install the driver: 
* Create a driver disk by copying the contents of the Smart Component to a floppy diskette. 
* If creating an array, press Ctrl+A or F8 when prompted to enter the BIOS Setup utility. 
* Press F6 when prompted to install a third-party driver. 

Note: When F6 is active, a prompt appears at the bottom of the screen. Press F6 immediately—you only have 5 seconds. If you miss your chance, restart this Windows installation to complete it correctly. Otherwise, Windows will not recognize your controller. 

* Insert the driver disk you created in Step 1 and wait until prompted to install a driver. 
* Press "S" to specify that the driver is on the floppy disk, then press Enter. 
* When the HP Embedded SATA RAID driver is found, press Enter. Follow the remaining on-screen instructions to complete your installation. 

Installing the Driver in an Existing Windows System: 
In this scenario, you are installing a driver in a system that already has a Windows operating system. To install the driver: 
* Create a driver disk by exracting the contents of Smart Component to a floppy diskette. 
* Start Windows. Windows launches the Found New Hardware Wizard, which searches for the controller driver. 
* Insert the driver disk you created in Step 1, select the floppy disk drive as the source then click Next. 
* If necessary, select the appropriate driver for your operating system. 
* Click Next as needed to complete the controller installation. 
* Remove the driver disk. 
* If prompted, restart the computer.
