MSI Reminds You...
1. Please note that users cannot install OS, either WinME or Win98,
in their SATA hard drives. Under these two OSs, SATA can only be
used as an ordinary storage device.
2. To create a bootable RAID volume for a Windows 2000 environment,
Microsoft ’s Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 (SP4) is required. As
the end user cannot boot without SP4, a combination installation
CD must be created before attempting to install the operating sys-
tem onto the bootable RAID volume.
To create the combination installation CD, please refer to the fol-
lowing website:
