Copy the lines from the [scsi] heading in your txtsetup.oem file into the new document, also under the [scsi] heading. It should look like the below example featuring a 3Ware Escalade RAID card:

[scsi]
3ware = "3ware Escalade 7000/8000 Series ATA RAID Controller"

Now let's fill in the [sourceDisksFiles] heading. Put the name of your SATA/RAID controller's .sys driver file (fasttrak.sys, for example) first, followed by an '= ' (equal sign) then the following string:

1,,,,,,3_,4,1

The complete line under the [SourceDisksFiles] heading should read:

[SourceDisksFiles]
(yourdrivername).sys = 1,,,,,,3_,4,1

Now to the [SCSI.load] heading; copy the text from the [scsi] section and paste it in under [SCSI.load], then delete everything after the equal sign. You should be left with:

[SCSI.load]
(yourSATA/RAID controller name) =

Now after the equals sign, add the name of your .sys driver file as in the [SourceDisksFiles] heading above, followed by ', 4'. The complete line should look like this:

[SCSI.load]
(yourSATA/RAID controller name) = (yourdrivername).sys, 4

Finally we come to the [HardwareIdsDatabase] heading. We need to do a little detective work to fill this one in. In the txtsetup.oem file, there should be one or more '[hardwareids.scsi…] entries, like the example one shown below:

[HardwareIds.scsi.FastTrak_TX2_nt5]
id="PCI\VEN_105A&DEV_6268&SUBSYS_4d68105A", "Fasttrak"

What we need are the first set of values in quotes, starting with 'PCI\VEN_' below each of these headings. From the above example, the example part we need would be:

PCI\VEN_105A&DEV_6268&SUBSYS_4d68105A

Copy each entire 'PCI\VEN_' quoted line and paste it into your new notepad document under [HardwareIdsDatabase], without the quotes. This part of your new notepad document should now look something like the following, but will be specific to the RAID/SATA card you are working with:

[HardwareIdsDatabase]
PCI\VEN_105A&DEV_6268&SUBSYS_4d68105A
PCI\VEN_105A&DEV_4D30&SUBSYS_4D39105A

Depending on the driver, there may be any number of these entries, but there should always be at least one.
