Does the CD read that file on another computer?

don't you need raid controller drivers to install windows to a raid?

Damn i missed that but there are a few exceptions where you dont need RAID drivers (also the case if i understand correctly regarding the Intel MatrixRaid?) but yes for the most part RAID drivers are required (or at the least the RAID BIOS has to be configured)

thax for trying to help me. I figured it out but not sure exactly what I did. Yes you need raid drivers but I was having the problem before it got to that step. I put the .dll file on a floopy disk and put that in when it first starting reading the windows disk and it worked.
