Installation of XP using F6 to install driver SATA controllers. which adapter?

This is my first experience with and try to install a fresh copy of XP to a SATA HDD (in a new ThinkPad T60). I got regarding locating and loading the Drivers Intel Matrix Storage Manager installation. But now has four adpaters SCSI to choose from:

How do I know that you choose (I've never started the ThinkPad) or is it important?

PS, I see only an adater (second) seems to be highlighted by default and is one of the two referred to in this description of the Lenovo driver. The other card mentioned does not appear on the list. What are the chances that by default, this is the right one and I could damage anything if I chose, but was not sure it was the right SCSI adapter?

Since my original post I took a chance and proceeded to load the preslected SCSI card, but still deadlocked when installing XP says: Setup did not find any hard drives installed in my computer.

Any ideas? Thank you

I read and use a number forums regarding a certain number of topics or interests, especially to help myself and thus am especially able to solve the problem I encounter. I do not often post except to help others help me or offer help to others. I don't want to be selfish, but especially there are others out there much more competent than me who are willing to and troubleshoot.

In this case however, I thought and turned to this Lenovo community forum was the most appropriate for the first time and even contacted Lenovo telephone assistance for an answer to my problem.

I don't want to seem ungrateful, but Lenovo Technical Support, nor anyone navigating this forum offered no help in what I just accidentally discovered is a simple solution to a simple problem. And it's like desricbed, only four adapters are displayed when the method F6 during installation of XP to install SATA driver controllers, which none worked or put in correspondence adapter described in the support page this driver Lenovo or Lenovo support this page describes how to install Windows XP for T60 and T60p ThinkPads.

Unbelieveablely support Lenovo nor anyone browsing these forums has been able to tell me, it's that Microsoft in the XP installation does not indicate that additional adapters can be found (hidden) simply using up or down keys to scroll. Once I did that I saw the card that I had to choose, continue and have windows 'See' the SATA hard drive.

So there you have it for technical support from Lenovo or anyone who could not install XP on a ThinkPad T60 using and following the Instructions and Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver and instead, was first to enter the BIOS. CONFIG and change the value for SATA of DCIS of compatibility to install the drivers and then subsequently modify the BIOS again:

Just scroll down and you should see your map!

    original title: installation of Windows 7

    Hey Joe,

    I suggest that you visit the gigabyte website for your region (and/or the site global http://www.gigabyte.com/?f=g ) and check your motherboard for compatibility with Windows 7.

    The problem you are experiencing would imply that Windows 7 has no native driver support for your disk controller, so if Gigabyte don't have drivers that you are locked unless you buy a discreet disk controller that is compatible Windows 7.

    Please mark this as useful or response if applicable.

    On the other hand, you have this posted in a forum of Windows XP when it is really a problem of Windows 7.

  • Installation clean P580 Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit - cannot install driver Intel WiFi correctly

    Driver installation went well after a clean install. I was not aware of any special settings or any need to install some drivers in the order. So maybe I did not just something.

    I noticed that there was no WiFi service. I have downloaded and run the file 0zwl03ww.exe, which is listed as driver WiFi Intel for Win 7 32/64. I got a message saying that something could have trouble with the installation. So I chose rerun. Asked me if I wanted to replace an existing file. I said "Yes to all". The result was a message saying "access denied." Later, there was still no WiFi and no WiFi service pilot shown in Device Manager.

    I restarted the PC, hoping it would help. Still no WiFi and no shown in Device Manager.

    I looked at the folder C:\Drivers containing the driver files and subdirectories. I removed those and tried to delete the folder. I didn't have the right to do. I checked the security settings on the folder and showed a red X with a message saying that the security settings are not available.

    When I try to reinstall the driver, I get the same results reported (files to be replaced), but no files are displayed in Windows Explorer in this folder.

    I tried to restore the original file to the Recycle Bin. Restoration happened, but now the files are gone.

    There is another pilot provided for Liteon & CyberTan; This doesn't seem to be the right driver.

    If the PC is running, LAN, internet cable OK - but I'm stuck with no WiFi. Can anyone help? Thank you!

    I found and ran a setup.exe for Win7 inside the extracted folder. I went through the typical installation of choice routine and told me "The Intel ProSet Wireless WLAN software Setup Wizard ended prematurely" with no further explanation given.

  • Portege R500: XP Installation with CD/DVD external USB - SOLUTION drive

    Hi all!

    I just wanted to take five minutes to inform you that installing XP on a Portégé R500 with external USB CD/DVD drive is possible, even if you have already deleted Vista and with a CD bootable XP Win in hand.

    First go into your BIOS and check / set first boot device is CD/DVD player

    Start your installation of win XP from the CD without the F6 thing and let go his way

    After some time, the installation stops and says "cannot find the file xxxx" and you are invited to tell where is this file

    "" Just replace the drive letter "C:" which is given by default with the letter of your CD/DVD drive (and leave the rest as it is) and the installation will continue until the next "cannot find...". "and you need to again replace the drive letter, etc...

    After a complete installation 'automatic assisted manual', you are welcome in Win XP!

    The next question is "where can I find my CD/DVD drive letter?" and the answer is "it's the next letter after your last HARD drive letter" (I consider you have only your Portege with nothing else plugged that your CD/DVD) so more often it will be 'E' C: being the first partition of your HARD disc : is the hidden / recovery partition that winning creates.

    But don't worry, if you type try to the wrong letter, that you will have as much as you want until you find the good and the following "cannot find...". "it will remain the same.

    I hope that this information will help some of you who want a fresh installation of win XP from a newly formatted HARD disk.

    With sincere friendships.

    Mage.

    What a great information!
    Thanks a lot for posting this.

  • Best option to use the mSATA SSD Drive - HP Envy 15 Sleekbook: Cache or primary storage?

    Product: HP Envy 15 t Sleekbook (15 t-j100)

    Technical specification:

    • Intel Core i7-4700MQ @ 2.40 GHz
    • Intel HM87 chipset
    • 12.0 GB RAM DD3 (two openings 8 GB + 4 GB)
    • NVIDIA GeForce GT740M (2 GB) + Intel HD 4600 graphics card
    • 1 TB 5400 RPM SATA HDD
    • Windows 8.1 Pro x 64

    Hi all

    I intend to buy an SSD mSATA disc to my desire, because I want to improve the response time at the opening of some programs, improve the General performance of the operating system and to access files faster to big (read and write).

    I searched several readers mSATA SSD in the Web and I chose a P830 Series128GB mSATA SSD Samsung miniPCI-E disk (SATA III 6 GB/s, read 500 MB/s, writing of 400 MB/s).

    But I'm asking about what might be the best option to use the SSD mSATA so suitable as a primary drive (operating system installation and leaving 1 TB of HARD drive for storage and applications) or use it as a cache to improve overall performance.

    I do not envy for IE play or video editing, but I work with VMWare Workstation, and most of the time I need to use about 2 or 3 VM at the same time (sometimes during the recovery of a virtual Suspension of machine it take a long time, the virtual disks sizes about 40 GB). Another use for my desire is to play movies/series HD / 3D 0 and mirrored them for my Smart TV (via Miracast)

    I read something on Intel Smart Response Technology (SRT) and I heard some benefits for use with SSDS as cache memory but I am still confused the best option.

    Any suggestions you may have? It might be useful for me!

    Kind regards

    Alejandro

    Hello @cchoiz ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you have questions about the installation of your mSATA SSD.

    The mSATA slot is designed to only be used as a disk cache. You may experience problems starting in the mSATA SSD as drive. For this reason, I recommend to use it in its configuration provided; as a cache drive.

    The decision is entirely at you in the end. If you are able to configure the BIOS to use the mSATA as the main drive, this will help improve your system performance in addition to using it as a cache drive, especially if there is enough space to install your VMWare on the mSATA SSD after you have installed the operating system. Use it as a main drive will also increase the life expectancy of the SSD.

    I can only offer you my personal and no suggestions 'official response HP' in this regard. As previously mentioned, it is entirely up to you.

    Hopfully, this helps at least a little.

  • The use of directshow installed visionless.

    Hello

    I use the full version of Labview 8.5.1. I do not have the vision assistant installed and I have no intention of buying it because it is for a small time tasks.

    Is there a dll General directshow that I can use it without having to install the requiring ni_imaq_usb_installer_86.exe OR vision?

    Is there a way to find what are the inputs and outputs of this dll without papers? (what I got during the installation of the SDK software acquisition card are the attached DLLs (the attached TXT file should actually be DLL)).

    What I really need, is to acquire a snapshot of a USB capture card.

    Thank you

    Amose

    Hello

    Yes, a license for the Acquisition of Vision software will allow you to acquire Cameras USB compatible DirectShow through the IMAQdx driver. Note that this is not the IMAQ USB driver that requires the Vision Development Module. As noted in the paper I linked, the IMAQdx driver is a driver with support which allows you to purchase a USB camera without needing something extra.
