     double-click on the self-extracting and self-installing

     setup file and answer all prompts presented.



  2. By default, all installed files (readme.txt, help,

     etc.) are copied to one of the following paths:

    

<bootdrive>\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology enterprise



<bootdrive>\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology enterprise



B. Windows Automated Installer* installation from hard drive

   or CD-ROM:

 

Note: This method will install the drivers for both the SAS 

      RAID and SATA RAID controllers.



  1. Download the Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology enterprise

     setup file and double-click to self-extract and to

     begin the setup process.



  2. When the 'Welcome' window appears, click 'Next' to

     continue.

 

  3. When the 'Uninstallation Warning' window appears,

     please read the information provided, then click 'Next'

     to continue.



  4. When 'Software License Agreement' window appears, if

     you agree to these terms, click 'Yes' to continue.

     Otherwise, click 'No' to cancel the installation.



  5. When the 'Readme File Information' window appears,

     please read the information provided, then click

     'Next' to continue.



  6. The 'Setup Progress' window appears and displays the

     actions being performed for the installation.



  7. When the Windows Automated Installer*

     'Setup Is Complete' window appears, the following

      options display: 



    a. Make sure any open documents are saved, select

       'Yes, I want to restart my computer now.', then click

       'Finish'.



    b. Or select 'No, I want to restart later', then click

       'Finish'.



C. Driver installation during Windows* XP x64-bit Edition

   or Windows* Server 2003 Edition using the 'F6 Method'+:



Note: This procedure will install only the software

      necessary for Windows* to install and be functional.

      To install the remaining software, it is necessary to

      use the installation procedure outlined in Section 4.B

      once Windows* has completed it's installation.



  1. Obtain the necessary files by one of two methods: 



    a. Download the latest Intel(R) RSTe F6 drivers from

       www.intel.com and extract the contents from the

       .zip file.



    b. Extract the files from the installation package. 

       See Section 6.B for instructions on extracting the

       files.



  2. Create a floppy (or USB key) containing the following

     files in the root directory:



    a. The files required if loading a driver for the SATA

       RAID controller is desired:



      - rsteahci.inf

      - iaAHCI.inf

      - rsteahci.sys

      - iaahci.cat

      - rsteahci_x64.cat (rsteahci_x86.cat if 32 bit install)

      - rstfltr.sys

      - txtsetup.oem



    b. The files required if loading a driver for the SAS

       RAID controller is desired:



      - rstescu.inf

      - rstescu.sys

      - rstescu1.sys

      - rstescu_x64.cat (rstescu_x86.cat if 32 bit install)

      - rstfltr.sys

      - txtsetup.oem



  3. At the beginning of the operating system installation,

     press F6 to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver:



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



  4. When prompted, insert the media (floppy or USB key)

     that was created in step 2 and press 'Enter'.



  5. At this point you should be presented with a selection

     for one of the controllers listed in the Overview of

     this document (Section 1) depending on your hardware

     version and configuration.



  6. Highlight the selection that is appropriate for the

     hardware in your system 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.



+ The 'F6 Method' refers to the key sequence used during

  Windows* XP or Windows* Server 2003 installation to signal

  that a third party device driver needs to be loaded.



D. Driver installation during Microsoft Windows* 7, Vista*,

   or Server 2008 Installation:



Note: This procedure will install only the software

      necessary for Windows* to install and be functional.

      To install the remaining software, it is necessary to

      use the installation procedure outlined in Section 4.B

      once Windows* has completed it's installation.



  1. Extract all driver files from the installation package.

     See Section 6.B for instructions on extracting the

     files.



  2. Add files listed in Section 4.C.2 to a USB key.



  3. Begin the Windows* installation, following the normal

     sequence of events.



  4. When the 'Where do you want to install Windows?' window

     displays, plug in your USB key and click 'Load Driver'

     at the bottom left hand side of the window.



  5. When the 'Load Driver' dialog window displays, click

     'Browse'.



  6. When the 'Open' dialog window displays, navigate to the

     location of the installation files, click 'OK'.



  7. At this point, you should be presented with a selection

     for one of the controllers listed in the Overview

     of this document (Section 1), being dependent on your

     hardware version and configuration.



  8. Select the controller that is appropriate for the

     hardware in your system and click 'Next'.
