Hallo this is my first post to this forum:D I need to install W2000 on a new machine without!! floppy controller and a HighPoint RocketRAID 1540 Controller. This is HPT374 ATA133/SATA RAID chip. I try to follow the method from http://greenmachine.msfnhosting.com/READING/addraid.htm but the resulting cd fails in the initial setup complaining that it can't find the hpt374.sys driver (I copied a compressed version hpt374.sy_, created with makecab, into the i386 directory).

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Christoph Ps. The standard XPcreate fails me for a german W2000 in the last 1-2 month It complains about a missing SP0 service pack??? (with and without integrated sp4 source disk)..
