Raid Drivers For Windows Vista

pug180 · 20 Jan 2006 at 20:14

I tried to install Windows Vista the other day on a new SATA II drive and after reading the notes on the cd i realised i needed the raid drivers so i could install it on my SATA II drive.

So i got out the floppy disc that i used when i did the same on my Windows XP Pro install. But the Windows Vista wouldnt accept them.

I know i havent the latest and greatest pc but can anybody help with the raid drivers.

CPU : Athlon XP 2800+
Mobo : Asus A7V8X
Raid Drivers : Promise FastTrak 376 driver Version 1.00.0.8 (Off ASUS site)

If Vista doesn't have drivers and won't take your XP versions, you've pretty much had it unless you can find beta drivers on the manufacturers website.
