    Working on my Flash Drive for the Maximus SE

    I am working on my Flash Drive for the Maximus SE.

    I used a friends system that had a floppy drive, and created a standard startup disk.

    Formatted my 128M flash drive I will be using to boot off of on the Max, using the FAT system.

    Copied all 10 files over to the flash drive:
    DISPLAY.SYS ---- 17KB
    EGA.CPI --------- 58KB
    EGA2.CPI -------- 58KB
    EGA3.CPI -------- 58KB
    KEYB ------------ 22KB
    KEYBOARD.SYS -- 34KB
    KEYBRD2.SYS ---- 32KB
    KEYBRD3.SYS ---- 31KB
    KEYBRD4.SYS ---- 13KB
    MODE ------------ 29KB

    Don't I need a autoexec.bat and/or config.sys files?

    I still need a link to the latest RAID 0 driver that I should be using with the Raptors.

    If I want to find, and run a utility program called wipedrive, to write 0's on my drive to aid in Raptor compatibility, would that run from the DOS prompt when I boot off the flash? If so that program needs to be on here too.

    How many different BIOS'es do you guys keep on your boot stick? The origional and the latest?

    Is ther any other programs that come to mind that are handy to keep on your boot drive?

    Sorry for the newb questions, I am trying to get a grip on allot of things at once..
