Default Trying to set up a program

I am trying to set up an raid 5, I downloaded and installed the program from
Nvidia that came on the motherboard disk. When I try and run it I am asked
what program I want to use.

Then it's not a progam that you "run".

What is the file extension... i.e., the three letters at the end after
the dot?

Ben:

RAID is not generally a good idea for the average user...
I'd advise against using it unless you really know what you are doing


If you really think
that's what you want to do, you need to go to Nvidia's website
get the instructions and read them

http://www.nvidia.com/object/feature_raid.html

I have run raid in the past and loved it. The reasion I went to raid 5 is
because I had a drive go out and lost all data, under 5 the system will
rebuild it's self if one of the drives goes out.

Default Trying to set up a program

It is a jar, it wants to load as a program everytime the computer boots up.

A .JAR files is a "ZIP" of Java files.

It shouldn't be loading at startup. Figure out why (msconfig?) and
stop it.

I forgot to tell you that the program is my Sata raid 5 manager, when I
loaded it it put an icon on the desk top and starts it when the computer
boots up.
