4.8.1 Installation Caution
Warning
The Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition driver may be used to
operate the hard drive from which the system is booting or a hard drive
that contains important data. For this reason, you cannot remove or un-
install this driver from the system after installation; however, you will
have the ability to un-install all other non-driver components.
The following non-driver components can be un-installed:
• Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition Utility
• Help Documentation
• Start Menu Shortcuts
• System Tray Icon Service
• RAID Monitor Service
4.8.2 Steps to Take Before Installing the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition
Resolve Conflicts in Device Manager
Before installing the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition, there should be NO conflicts
(e.g. yellow exclamation points or red X’s) in Device Manager under Hard Disk Controllers.
Device Manager can be accessed by going to: Start Button / Settings / Control Panel / System
/ Device Manager. Often, installing the Intel® Chipset Software Installation Utility will resolve
conflicts where the operating system does not properly recognize the Intel device.
Please refer to Appendix A for additional information on the Intel Chipset Software Installation
Utility.
