Installing 1TB WD Drive as Boot Drive on Rosewill RC209

I purchased a SATA card to run my brand new Western Digital 1TB SATA Hard Drive. The card I purchased was the Rosewill RC209 from newegg.

I need to know how to setup the 1TB drive as a boot drive and do a fresh install. I am not sure which driver to install for the card either cause it has many but there is no setup so im confused. Give me a step by step guide on how to do this. Thanx!!!!!!!
