i tried with a usb stick but it says there is no driver and have now tried the driver on the link you provided, still no luck, it dosent get to the point where you would normally install the raid driver and select the drive to install to

Click to expand...


Okay

Do you get to the option of selecting Custom Installation? If so, and there is no data that you need on the hard drive, click Drive Options (advanced) and select the partion that you want to format. Only do this if you are happy to lose all data on the HDD.

From the manual for that board,

Make sure you have the DVD drive connected to either SATA port 4 or 5 if it isn't already (these two can be configured independently of the other four when RAID is enabled),

then double check in the bios that it is set to IDE mode. That should make it so that Windows doesn't ask for a driver for the DVD drive.
