RAID txtsetup.oem XPsp3 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Recently my Hard drive failed and I've been waiting for my new set of drives to get shipped here.

At first, I tried installing onto a USB stick, but that's not really supported even though I tried a hack with USB drivers to load during setup.

My problem now is I know I will need to get RAID working, but I get this error when using F6 to load drivers prior to setup
txtsetup.oem error(1) at line 1747: xpsp\boot\disk\oemdisk.c
Not sure if that was exact error but the numbers are right.

I've googled around but can't find my error, and must of the information about txtsetup.oem errors are very confusing.

I think I should be able to bypass this by slipstreaming drivers using nliteOS, but I was wondering if anyone knew the source of the problem.

I should mention I have an ASUS Crosshair III with ATI RAID and I have an option of ATI SB750 RAID/AHCI drivers or Mark AHCI/RAID drivers (can't use these because it only makes floppies). I am copying the txtsetup and associated files to a SD card and emulating a floppy disk via BIOS.

Using Nlite to slipstream the RAID drivers worked for me. I tried a lot of BIOS games; slipstreaming them worked.

OK got my new drives configured RAID0, but something weird happened installing XP.

Instead of a C: Drive for Windows. I have a I: Drive.

My card reader has drives C: - F:
CD Drives are G: and H:

Maybe it's my stupid BIOS (ASUS Crosshair III). Boot order was CD-ROM, HDD
I had to have CD-ROM as first boot, because I've looked in the manual and there doesn't seem to be a boot selection key.

I'll probably just go with it since I don't want go through it all again.

It's XP. You have to remove any IDE drive or card reader when installing XP.
