Hello people I have a question, don't know if its a dumb question or not but, every time I want to install Intel rapid storage technology (for raid and ahci drivers) and Intel INF(for chipset drivers) on windows 8.1 and 10 for older chipsets like x38 or X58 I get an error that says not compatible, then I go to intels webpage and find out that those drivers are only for newer chipsets, and when I go to the motherboards drivers web page they only have drivers for windows 7, some vista, since most of the mobos drivers are basically intels drivers I decided to go back to intels webpage to look for IRST AND INF drivers, but they don't provide these drivers for older chipstest on newer OS, so if I choose AHCI on a x58 chipset I'll have no way to install the drivers... I'll have that annoying eject option icon on my taskbar for my internal hdd.. do you guys know how to fix this issue?
