How upgrade to Windows 8 RT979UT - need RAID driver

I want to spend my RT979UT to Windows 8 and keep the motherboard SATA configured in RAID. The installer of windows 8 reports that I need a driver (I think it says expressly "media driver"), at least I have change the BIOS setting to one of the IDE options (I think they were native and emulated?).

Given that this system has the chipset AMD Radeon Xpress 1150, I tried the drivers on site AMD, more specifically the files that I unpacked of 12-10_vista_win7_win8_32 - 64_raid.exe on another system, but while the driver seemed to match, Setup was not convinced, always complaining that he was missing one or more drivers.

I have update the latest version of the BIOS from the HP website.

Because I was able to do an install when I changed the setting in the BIOS for an option to IDE, I think that the missing driver (s) is/is specifically RAID driver.  With this successful installation, I installed the AMD/Catalyst drivers as appropriate (I think that Device Manager showed that all devices are properly recognized), then changed the BIOS setting to RAID, but Windows wouldn't boot.

Would I be able to find a driver that will allow me to level to Windows 8 with the Radeon Xpress 1150 configured in RAID?

Hello:

I would try the Vista driver of support for your PC and driver page.

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=12454&prodSeriesId=3253421&prodNameId=3253423&swEnvOID=2103&swLang=13&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=vc-75484-1

In addition, I do not understand why you change just the emulation of SATA in RAID in BIOS (Storage Options > Emulation SATA) and install W8.

The Guide to install it on the link below, page 5.

http://bizsupport2.Austin.HP.com/BC/docs/support/SupportManual/c00765938/c00765938.PDF

The RAID driver should be included in the W8 installation media driver database already, I think that woulld. It is in the drive of W7.

Thus, if for some reason W8 asks a driver, use the facility advanced, have the driver above extracted with No folder and copied to a USB flash drive, then select the RAID driver when you see listed flash player files.

Make sure that you simply copy the 32-bit or 64-bit files according to the case, so there is no confusion.

  • Problems upgrading to Windows 7 Ultimate - needs disk drivers

    We have two HP TouchSmart PC.  One is a TouchSmart IQ505a originally shipped with Vista installed and running Windows 7 Ultimate for years.  The other is a 320-1135 was originally shipped with Windows 7 Home Premium TouchSmart.  We have a DVD of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, burned an ISO image downloaded as part of a Microsoft Partner subscription.  (We are software publishers).

    When I tried to install the 320-1135a TouchSmart, installation got as far as saying that «the installation program starts...» ».  He then asked me to insert a driver disk.  I downloaded all the Softpacs driver for the 320-1135a TouchSmart, copied all the files .exe on a CD and inserted into the 320-1135a TouchSmart.  Then I navigated to the folder that contains the drivers, but the Installer did not see them.

    Over the years I've installed older TouchSmart IQ505a several times during the same installation disc, but I could neither recall never asked for drivers to the installation of Windows 7 was complete.  Then I reinstalled the TouchSmart IQ505a, just to double check my memory.  NONE of the pilots did NOT the same Windows Installer.  He completed the Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit install.  I then installed the drivers of IQ505a TouchSmart as usual.

    I guess what is happening here is that the 320-1135a TouchSmart requires latest drivers, or something that is not on our Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit DVD.  So I called HP Support, only to be told that they were not familiar with the Windows 7 installation procedures and since we got the DVD from Microsoft, we have to communicate with them.  I protested "but it's YOUR drivers that's not reading.  I expect Microsoft will just to send back me to you. "- only to be told"contact Microsoft ".  Which is where we are currently at.

    Can someone help me with my dilemma.  What I have to do something with Softpac .exe files before they can be seen as drivers my Windows install, if so what?  And if that's the case why couldn't HP tell me?

    If the TouchSmart is running Windows 7 Home Premium, why don't you just try the upgrade by using Windows Anytime Upgrade and the ultimate product key?

    If the license for Windows 7 Ultimate, you have access to is a retail version update or complete, you can use the product key and the Express upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate. First of all, check that the edition of Windows 7, you are upgrading is already enabled (if it isn't, you will encounter complications and that you might start all by performing a clean installation). Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Ultimate edition at the request, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify its update of the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate files the stored settings and programs.

  • Dell Inspiron 1721 Win 7 ultimate upgrade on Vista ultimate. ATI Raid driver problems.

    I install Win 7 Ultimate on Windows Vista Ultimate Edition for my sister.  Although I am appalled by his duty to pay 200 more of the money it has paid to buy Vista Ultimate (for which she won Bitlocker and the possibility to join the areas, I have the following problem: she has a lot to gain a little and there are still problems in the installation of the OS.)  It would be good, at least, since it paid the price to have copies of the disks him were sent and more download (which I work with)

    I am trying to install the upgrade from 32-bit to Windows 7 on my laptop Dell Inspiron 1721 and I get an error that says I need to update my ATI AHCI Compatible RAID Driver. I went into the device drivers update as described in the instructions and tried to update the driver but it says I have the latest version of the driver for it. So I tried to restart my laptop and represented the upgrade installation and received the same error message.

    Can you advise me on how to solve the problem.  She has spent a lot of money and, at least, deserves to make it work!

  • Portege M400: Installtion Windows - cannot install the RAID driver

    Hello world
    I installed my original form of the system DVD Toshiba (60 GB partition).
    So, I bought the second system with my notebook (Windows XP Pro OEM PL) and I want to install it on my second partition. When installing WinXP installer asked me about RAID driver on drive A: (I USB floppy drive, so it's no problem)... next step - partitioning - no problem. But when Windows starts to copy files (after select and format partition), ask again on RAID driver disk A: - and that is the problem, because my floppy drive is not present (maybe disable it windows after formatting the partition, I don't know)...
    There is also no results:
    -J' tried to install Windows on USB HDD, but there are blue screen after the first reboot,.
    -J' have tried to compile the RAID driver in driver.cab, this does not (or I did wrong).
    Someone has an idea how to install my second system? It is OEM, and I don't want to lose him.
    .. Sorry for my poor English :)...

    Hello

    After installing the driver RAID you should not make any partition or format the HARD drive.
    If you do this, the RAID driver is deleted and you will get an error.

    So do all the changes on the HARD disk before you install the RAID driver.
