You have togo to <A HREF="http://www.promise.com" target="_new">http://www.promise.com</A> and install the promise drivers.

ok... at work now so I can't actually install the drivers, but... the promise site seems to clearly say that the drivers are not for embedded Promise controllers on MB's. That being said, I understand that is just a way of not getting into a support black hole on something the OEM is supposed to support. So I would load the drivers off their site if I could figure out which one worked with the Asus A7v133. I did get the promise drivers off the asus site before i posted this thread. And tried to install (I think it was build 33) The Promise Controller under Raid and SCSI is installed and working fine. In fact, I don't have any visable issues with the system other than Device manager saying it has a problem. But in my experience, I would like to get that resolved before it causes other issues...


Can you shed any light on what drivers work? I am running Bios 1008a if I remember correctly. There is a 1009 for 48 HDD, but I did not flash that one...

more... I found the 2.0 Raid Promise Drivers on the ASUS site. Encouraging in that they say "XP". I will try to load them and see what happens.

Again, anybody with any real experience in this regard is welcomed to reply. I will check the thread before I do anything...

Are you using RAID? Because this driver can only be used when RAID is set up, and I believe this driver is for newer Promise drivers of KT266 and later mobos.

:smile: Good or Bad have no meaning at all, depends on what your point of view is.

Resolved... Deinstalled the Promise Drivers, put the Drive on the IDE. I let XP find and install the Promise drivers. It did not install the IDE bus driver I was having trouble with. Life is good. No device conflicts.
