Windows Server 2003 Raid Drivers
Hi there, i'm running windows server 2003 on one of my PC's at home and think i screwed up lol.

i have a K8N4-E Deluxe Mobo and it has 4 Sata Ports on the chipset and 4 Sata ports thorugh a SI Raid. So i now have 5 HD's and the 4 on the chipset all get reconized properly but when i try to plug #5 into the raid sata port 1 its not reconized by the system. i'm pretty sure its because i didnt install the raid drivers when i was installing windows, so my question is there a way to install the raid drivers onto the system now that windows has been fully loaded. i dont really wanna format and reinstall everything since installing everything that has to be installed takes FOREVER. i've looked on the Asus website and SI's website and dont seem to see a way.

Any information would help.

Thanks

if you have the raid drivers it shouldn't be an issue to install them as long as they are digitally signed by M$ then should work great. If they aren't digitally signed then it will probably work, but there is no guarantee.

Hi there i can find the drivers no sweat but there in the drivers come in a folder that has like
si3114r5.cat
si3114r5.inf
si3114r5.sys
Si3114r5.cpl
SIPPD.inf
SIWinAcc.sys
TxtSetup.oem

i'm sure those files are suppost to be put on a disc and installed when i install windows server 2003, is there anyway to install those without having to reinstall the OS?
