WinXP and ICH5R Raid

Alright, when I followed intel chipset instructions, it worked. Anyways, I have the following 3 folders:

1) $OEM$\$$\INF which contains 4 files: 865.inf, ich5core.inf, ich5ide.inf, ich5usb.inf

2) $OEM$\$1\Drivers\IntelINF with 865.inf, ich5core.inf, ich5ide.inf, ich5usb.inf; and 865.cat, ich5core.cat, ich5ide.cat, ich5usb.cat

3) $OEM$\$1\Drivers\IntelRAID with iaStor.cat; iaStor.inf; iaStor.sys; TXTSETUP.OEM

The major hurdle was unpacking and choosing appropriate files from several folders contained in the driver package. Make sure you choose the ones appropriate for your chipset (that's probably why you had computer constantly rebooting - wrong drivers).

Lastly, I had to add the following 2 lines to winnt.sif [unattended] section

DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore

OemPnPDriversPath="DRIVERS\INTELINF"

I think that was enough for my silent installation to recognise and format raid0 without reverting to F6 floppy disk setup. But it was a long while ago, so I might have forgotten a couple details, so read up some more. Good luck!

Thank you for your contribution, I may will retry with chipset drivers added, for now I only tested with the raid drivers alone...
