self-extracting file will store the drivers in the C:\SWSETUP\IAA_4.5.0.6515 
directory.


FOR OPERATING SYSTEM SATA RAID ARRAY IMAGE:

Install the driver using the F6 install function when installing Microsoft 
Windows or build a pre-installation image with the driver.

The drivers can be extracted from the iata_enu.exe file. To extract the drivers 
for use with the F6 install function or to build into a pre-installation image, 
execute the following command in a DOS shell:

c:\iata_enu.exe -a -a -p c:\

The command will extract the following files to the path location specified in 
the command:
1) iaAHCI.cat 8KB
2) iaAHCI.inf 3KB
3) iaStor.cat 8KB
4) iaStor.inf 3KB
5) iaStor.sys 457KB
6) TXTSETUP.OEM 2KB


FOR A DATA SATA RAID ARRAY IMAGE:

1. Install the driver and application after you have the operating system on a 
different hard drive.

2. Then install two SATA hard drives to the onboard SATA ports and enable the 
SATA RAID option ROM in the systems BIOS setup prior to booting to Windows.

3. Execute the following command from C:\SWSETUP\IAA_4.5.0.6515:

iata_enu.exe

This command installs the IAA 4.5.0.6515 driver and the IAA application that 
configures and controls the SATA RAID arrays.

NOTE: If the option ROM is not enabled, the following error message is 
returned:

"This hardware is incompatible"
