Possible to create a raid array without a floppy

[Massive Attack]

hi all i was wondering is it possible to create a raid 0 array on an nvidia nforce 430 chipset without the use of a floppy drive, i.e burn the driver to CD and use that or does wondows only search for an A drive?


cheers

thanks, just plugged in an old floppy i had lying around going to setup my 2x320gb 7200.10s in raid ) on my nforce 4 raid controler just dont get how to do it as there is no option like the intel ones to go into a seperate bios kind of thing to set it all up

ok ive configured all the raid options like striping stripe size and the discs i want but everytime i do the windows setup i press F6 to load the driver and there is an NVIDIA CLASS RAID Driver and and NVIDIA ATA bus driver or somthing of that kind (nvatabus is what it says) i have tried loading both together and individually and i get BSODs at various pionts during the setup i have never gotton to the format part it always BSODs straight before that, luckily my installation didnt corroupt from this drive but when i go into the setup and try and format the drive there is nothing there to format not even my storage drives, i have been into the bios and made sure everything is correct and my 2 drives show up as one under nvidia AGE and i have set that to boot first still get BSODs. sorry for the long/confusing post
