Hi,

I built a new machine with Vista in it and moved my old raid card from an XP system into it. The card is an EIO AP1680 IDE RAID PCI card. My problem is that the drivers aren't found using windows update. Whn I try the older XP drivers it installs but gives me a "not enough resources to enable this device. You need to turn off other devices to enable this card" error.

Does anyone have the udpated driver for this card? If not, can someone instruct on how to 'turn-off' the other stuff to get this to run? Google gave me nothing and disabling other stuff in device manager didn't do squat.

Thanks TOM's folks!

Just to be clear, have you tried downloading the newest XP drivers from the RAID controller manufacturer's website?

Hey r_manic,


Yep, tried the newest XP drivers and it gave the same error.

"not enough resources to enable this device. You need to turn off other devices to enable this card"

I've also tried 2k3 server and other drivers with the same results.

For now I've taken it out of the machine but losing 4 additional IDE devices is a huge loss in terms of storage for me. I have loads of files and keep the 4 IDE 320GB drives in morrired pairs to keep redundancy... (photographer here so I need the security of redundant drives)

Thanks!
