Need some help, I am trying to setup a RAID0 on my board and reinstall of windows 7, I cannot for the life of me get the raid drivers to install in windows setup.

Steps so far
1 two freshly formatted OCZ agility 3 disk, both have the firmware updated and are empty.
2 plugged them into the middle ports on my Asus Z77 Gene v mother board, these are the Intel 6G ports.
3 Gone into BIOS and under advanced/sata controller I have selected RAID, F10 and save
4 Hit Ctrl+I and entered the raid screen
5 Created a RAID0 setup with the two disk's(setup stripe and such)
6 Exited that
7 Restart PC with window setups to boot from
8 I have the raid drivers (F6 version) on a usb pendrive and this is where it all falls apart

It just refuses to use the drivers that are on the pendrive, there's no option to press F6, only the option to browse for the drivers, to which I have (64bit versions from asus website, also tried the later one's from intel) but it wont go any further

Anyone able to help?
 
Fixed it now, was using a usb hub with the windows install on usb, it didn't like it, plugged into an empty usb and it worked, no need for raid drivers either.

seems to have worked
