5. <Install the operating system >

1. When you enter the partition screen, you will find no detect hard drive.

2. You need to click the "Load Driver" and plug in your flash drive (which have a
MPX-3132's driver).

Note: If you want to install the Wind ow s XP, y ou need a fl oppy di sk to l oad the dri ver .

6. <SATA RAID Configuration>

This MiniCard only supports the following configurations:
RAID 0 (Stripping): Two hard drives operating as one drive for optimized data R/W
performance. It needs two unused drives to build this operation.
RAID 1 (Mirroring): Copies the data from first drive to second drive for data security,
and if one drive fails, the system would access the applications to the workable drive. It
needs two unused drives or one used and one unused driv e to build this o peration. The
second drive must be the same or lager size than first one.

For more information of Silicon Image Technology, please visit silicon Image website.

At boot time, press <Ctrl + S> or <F4> to enter the RAID configuration menu
