I have a ASUS A8N-SLI Premium Motherboard with Nvidia chip set and I'm going to run Vista Ultimate 32bit. I already tried using the XP Driver to install RAID0 but it didn't work :(

Anyone know where i can get a Vista RAID Driver for my motherboard/chip set?
 
Hi my friend, this will help you.

unpack these drivers and put ALL the contents of the SATA_IDE folder onto the root of a floppy, cd, usb key etc and have Vista load the drivers during install from said media. You should see you raid array listed then. Be sure to set the raid array to bootable in the media shield bios for the raid controller. Create an active partition and format from within Vista setup after the drive has been recognized.

If you have any issues check this thread over at nforcershq.com

If you are using the Silicon Image 3114 controller for your raid array over the Nivida one use these drivers again on the root of a floppy, cd or usb key.

My father has an SLI-Premium board and I have successfully set up his system twice using the above listings without issue.

I also got it running on the A8N SLI DELUXE but it runs horibly with my 8800gts.
