set RAID controller mode back to AHCI in BIOS.boot Windows, fails again, the same way as before.Reboot, set RAID controller mode to RAID in BIOS and select the above INF file and then the driver.

Rad mode olliolli2 update#
Then in Device Manager I selected to Update the driver of the IDE controller, "let me select the driver", Have disk. in the RAID driver INF file (ahcix86s.inf) I added a line with this ID:īefore: %NapaDesc%=Napa_Inst,PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_4392.in Device Manager I looked up the PCI ID of the IDE controller (it was 439C) (select Properties on the controller, the ids are on the tab Details, under HardwareId in dropdown menu).I picked the (unused) IDE controller as a scapegoat for the RAID driver.Try to boot Windows, it fails (it reboots during startup, no error message is visible) I added 2 more hard drives (connected them to the RAID controller ports), set RAID controller mode to RAID, and set up some RAID arrays on the 2 new HDs (all this in BIOS setup).RAID controller set to AHCI mode, Windows 7 installed on the first (and only) HD.additional IDE/SATA controller with 2 ports (for eSATA and optical drive, I guess) (from now on "IDE controller").
