the current PC spec is XP x64, with nforce 570 ultra, nvRaid 0, 3 HDD.
I want to change MB and CPU to g35 + q6600, but keep the HD part. I need to install intel ICH raid /ahci driver in the current OS before I replace MB and CPU, I expect this can be a "smooth transition" from NVRaid to ICH Raid if my suppose is correct. There are quite a lot of things in my OS, I really don't want to reinstall it.

But the installer file (Intel Matrix Storage Manager\ IATA85ENU.exe) don't allow me to install the driver on a non intel chipsets based system. I tried to extract the file within it by execute EXE file in cmd prompt like this:

Code :
  1. IATA85ENU.exe -a -p c:\intelDriver

note:IATA85ENU.exe /? will show a parameter intro.

Then what I got is just the text mode drivers used in pre installation stage( you know, the floppy disk, "press F6 bla bla bla" ).
Now I don't know what I can do. No idea at all.
Any suggestions? Can I install these text mode driver manually?
Thanks in advance... :-)
