Hi
I am about to build a computer for the first time and am just reading through all the doco and downloading drivers and stuff.
I am just a bit confused over the SATA downloads for the board as found on the gigabyte website:
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Support/Motherboard/Driver_Model.aspx?ProductID=2842
I understand that I need either preinstall driver (Intel ICH9R/ICH10R Driver (Preinstall driver, press F6 during Windows* setup to read from floppy)) on a floppy or usbstick(for vista) when installing the OS. But what is the 20Mb download (Intel ICH9R/ICH10R SATA RAID Driver) for?
Do I need both?
I won't be running raid but I believe I should be using AHCI so I need to do this?
As I said a bit confused.
Thanks
Tony
