If you want to install a Windows operating system to a RAID configuration created
using the Marvell SATA controller, you have to create a RAID driver disk using the
motherboard support DVD and load the driver during OS installation. For 32/64bit
Windows XP OS, load first the Marvell shared library driver, and then load Marvell
91xx SATA Controller Driver. For Windows Vista / Windows 7 OS, load only the
Marvell 91xx SATA Controller Driver.
