You shouldn't need any additional drivers for a Raptor. XP-SP2 had no problem loading on either my 36 or 74 GB Raptors.

Unpack and put the following files on a floppy:
http://dlsvr03.asus.com/pub/ASUS/misc/ide/silicon/silicon_v10022.zip

When you first load into windows setup, hit f6 when prompted (at the very bottom of the screen literally seconds after the screen turns blue). Then when it asks which drivers to load hit "s", choose "xp/2000" and hit enter twice. It will then load the drivers for your hard drive ;)
