Problems installing SATA Drivers for K8tm-ILSR with Via VT8237R

I have a Gateway 812gm.  For some reason this machine was sent to me with the wrong board in it...at least accroding to Gateway.  It took me 2 months for them to believe that the board in my pc had sata capabilities.  Anyway...There is nothing in the bios for me to enable the sata ports on the motherboard.  I looked everywhere.  The current ver. of bios I am running is a67741vg1 v3.4b1 121404.  I tried to flash the latest bios version(1.6) that I could find.  I don't have a 3.5" floppy drive so I formatted a usb drive as a windows millenium boot disk.  Then I copied the two files:  a6741vms.160 and adsfi713.exe to the ramdrive(E:).  Then from the ramdrive I typed adsfi713 a6741vms.160     Then the AMI Flash Programming Utility for DOS comes up and says  "ROM FILE NAME A6741VMS.160 ROM SIZE 00040000H  - Error File Size Not Match.  I have an AMD Athlon 64 3200+.  I also have an IDE Raid controller hooked up...SIL 0680 ATA/144 Medley Raid Controller(don't know if that matters).  And I am trying to hookup a Seagate Barracuda 80 gig sata drive.  Model #ST380817AS.  Hope someone can help me out.  I desperately need it.  Thanks a bunch.

Try this:
- Go into bios and select Optimized Settings;
- Reboot and go into bios again.
- Goto Integrated peripherals and enable onboard SATA and set it to SATA when using only one disk. If this option isn't available, just select enable;
- save and exit bios and restart PC;
- when in Windows have a look under Device manager;
- goto SCSI & RAID controllers and have a look. The VIA SATA RAID (or something like that) should be there.
   - If not,  look under IDE controllers and look for it there.
One way or the other, it should be there now. If not, just tell us and we'll look further.

  • Help installing sata drivers for 870-G45

    I just noticed Windows 7 64-bit lists my internal sata ii drive as ata in the device manager and also won't autodetect my e-sata usb drive when I connect it.  I read that I need an AHCI driver.  I have a 870-G45 mobo with AMD RX780 Northbridge and SB710 Southbridge.
    So I went to the msi drivers page at http://www.msi.com/product/mb/870-G45.html#/?div=Driver&os=Win7%2064 and downloaded the driver package:
    ATI System Drivers for 7xx/8xx/SB7xx/SB8xx Series (except RS690, 740).
    When I unzip the downloaded file "ati_system_drive_mb.zip" I get a directory called "AMD" and inside is a program called "Setup.exe"
    When I run Setup.exe it wants to install a program called "Catalyst".  Is this correct?  It says something about managing graphics but I don't have an AMD video card.
    Do I have to run Catalyst?  I can see some drivers in the folder AMD->Packages->Drivers->SBDrv->SB7xx->AHCI->W764A listed as:
    amd_sata.inf
    amd_sata.sys
    amd_xata.sys
    amd_sata.msi
    Can I just install these somehow?
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    ok, I can explain this better.
    I have an internal sata ii drive and an external esata. 
    Both work but for the external drive when I turn it on I have to go to 'Disk Management" and rescan drives for win7 to pick it up.
    Here is my Device Manager:
    See both my drives show as ATA even though they are SATA.  And I have only IDE controllers listed no SATA controller.
    I am trying to get the system to recognize the drives as SATA and use the SATA controller to get better performance.
    Also I am trying to install AHCI so that my external drive can be auto recognized.
    The only thing in my BIOS regarding AHCI is under "Integrated Peripherals->On-Chip ATA Devices->RAID Mode->AHCI
    I assume it needs to be set to AHCI.

    I've installed windows 7 with the help of bootcamp on my macbook pro 2011.
    Please help me how to install mac drivers for windows7 64 bit???

    You either download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant and save to USB FAT disk, or you insert and use 10.6.x OS X DVD when in Windows and install and run the SETUP from there.

    Step 4: Install the Boot Camp Drivers for Windows
    After installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows using your Mac OS X installation disc.  The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, including AirPort,built-in iSight camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and thefunction keys on an Apple keyboard. 
    The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and theApple Boot Camp system tray item.
    To install the Boot Camp drivers:
    1 Eject the Windows installation disc.
    2 Insert the Mac OS X disc.  If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
    3 Follow the onscreen instructions.
    If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows  Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.
    Windows that appear only briefly during the installation don’t require your input.
    If nothing appears to be happening, there may be a hidden window that you mustrespond to. Check the taskbar and look behind open windows.
    Important: Do not click the Cancel button in any of the installer dialogs.
    4 After your computer restarts, follow the instructions in the Found New Hardware  Wizard to update your software drivers (Windows XP only).
    5 Follow the instructions for any other wizards that appear.
    6 Check for updated Boot Camp drivers by using Apple Software Update or going to www.apple.com/support/bootcamp.
      If You Have Problems Installing the Device Drivers 
    If it appears that the Boot Camp drivers weren’t successfully installed, try repairing them.
    To repair Boot Camp drivers:
    1 Start up your computer in Windows.
    2 Insert your Mac OS X installation disc.
    3 If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
    4 Click Repair and follow the onscreen instructions.
    If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows  Logo testing, click Continue Anyway. 
    If you need to reinstall specific drivers, you can install one driver at a time. For example,if your built-in iSight camera isn’t working, you can reinstall just the iSight driver.
    Individual drivers are in the Drivers folder on the Mac OS X installation disc.

  • Windows Update installed the drivers for the wrong sound card?

    I need serious help with this one.
    It all started October 31st when I find that Windows Update lists an update for my sound card - a Sound Blaster Li've! 24bit internal card. I install it, reboot, and realize that my sound is not coming through the speakers (Note, sound was working before I installed this update. I'm not even sure if the sound card is processing to it). I realized that Windows Update seemed to have installed the drivers for the wrong sound card. It installed drivers for "SB Audigy" (it was originally SB Li've!), why they chose to be so generic - I don't know. I later find out that not even Creative's website has this updated driver, but apparently, only Windows Update is issuing this out.
    But wait, it gets even more frustrating.
    So I don't have System Restore enabled (big resource hog), and I need to go back to the older drivers. I originally do a driver rollback using the Device Manager, which made the drivers go back to what they were before - but still wasn't outputting sound. I think even though the older drivers were being used by Windows, the software that Creative issued wasn't picking up this fact and thought I still using the newer ones for Audigy. So I decided to uninstall everything and start with an actual driver installation executable from Creative's website (SB24_PCDRV_LB__04_0090.exe). What I found out was that if new drivers are detected, I can't actually install over them.
    However, if I uninstall the drivers using the Device Manager, it'll automatically install everything - the control panel, the preferences, drivers, etc for the new "SB Audigy" drivers that were issued Oct 3st once I scan for hardware changes. The reason I need to scan for hardware changes is because if I uninstall the drivers from the Device Manager, it'll remove the instance of "SB Audigy" from the list. This causes problems for the installer for the older drivers (SB24_PCDRV_LB__04_0090.exe) because now it thinks there isn't any hardware to install the drivers for (all because I haven't made the Device Manager actually discover my actual sound card, yet unless I press "Scan for Hardware changes" which as a result, will install the newer drivers from Oct 3st automatically. I hope this makes sense so far).
    So now I can't uninstall the newer incorrect drivers so I can install the older ones for the actual sound card. Normally I heard that you can change something in the new driver's installation executable to properly uninstall everything. Only problem is, Windows Update doesn't exactly tell you where it's downloading the driver/hardware installation files. I know in the Software Distribution you can find Windows Update stuff downloading there - but I couldn't find the SB Audigy driver update it keeps installing while "scanning for hardware changes" in the Device Manager.
    This was incredibly hard to put into detail, so I hope that it makes a little bit of sense. If you need clarification on anything please let me know and I'll do anything to help eliminate the problem. Just remember I have:
    Windows 7 x64
    Sound Blaster Li've! 24bit
    I think the only problem I'd like to solve is - how could I install older drivers if Windows keeps installing the newer ones even after I uninstall them? Because right now, I can't do much unless I know how to get rid of the installation files for the Oct 3st update so it won't have anything to use. Another way to rephrase the question is, how could I get the Device Manager in Windows to display my soundcard as "Multimedia Audio Controller" for as long as I need so I can run SB24_PCDRV_LB__04_0090.exe which will then detect that there is a sound card that can use the drivers and install them properly?
    Thanks for your help guys, I hope we can solve this. Because I've done everything I could. Hopefully I don't need to reinstall the operating system just so I can have sound working.

    Click on Start> ALL Programs > Creative > Creative Audio Console.
    Make sure speakers are set to 5. if that's what you're using. I like to Synchronize with Windows Control Panel. Turn EAX to No effects, and/or turn effects to 0%. On the CMSS 3D Tab, turn the Mode to OFF.

    Any ideas/suggestions ?

    The most reliable information on running Windows on a Mac is most often not going to be your store or elsewhere but from ATI and Nvidia.
    Apple does not provide graphics drivers anymore than Microsoft does, just something basic is all.
    Nvidia - pls. check their web site for information first - has said they would in 2009 provide mobility drivers, for any and all platforms and users.
    A Mac running Windows is just a personal microcomputer. And all laptops have faced trouble with graphics.
    NVIDIA® is making it easier than ever to get the most capability and performance from your notebook by making NVIDIA® GeForce® notebook drivers available on NVIDIA.com. These drivers deliver sharp, crystal-clear, on-the-go graphics with lightning fast performance for games, videos, and images, all while maintaining manufacturer customizations, including hotkeys.
    And one more thing – NVIDIA notebook drivers now bring NVIDIA® CUDA™ technology to notebooks for the first time, including NVIDIA® PhysX™ technology for the latest games.

  • How can I install gutenprint drivers for my Epson Stylus Color 440?

    Good day all!
    I have and old and useful printer -Epson Stylus Color 440- and just bougth a cable for connecting it to USB port. Add a new print on its Print and Scan Preference Panel and it was recognized inmediatly, but I was told there was not any driver to that printer.
    Tried to set "Epson Stylus Color Series" on its driver but when I went to print, printer seemed to work but does not eject any ink. It seemed as if I were ran out of ink; its car moved over the places occupied by the photo and sounded as normal printing, but not a drop of ink. I checked on an older windows pc, and ink is full, printed normally. I also looked for its drivers on Epson pages, but it seems there are only available for previos Mac OSs, not for X.
    A son told me that in his Snow Leopard MacBook White there's a dirver called "Epson Stylus Color 440 gutenprint" on his Print and Scan Driver Menu; haven't tried to print from his MacBook yet, and as I searched, those are open drivers.
    I wonder if I can download and install that "Epson Stylus Color 440 gutenprint" from the web, of if there's a way to copy it from my son's Macbook, when he comes and check.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • How can I install JDBC drivers for Oracle?!?....

    i have a program that has this line:
    import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
    that gives this error when I compile it:
    package oracle.jdbc.pool does not exist
    So I think I need to install JDBC drivers for Oracle. (?)
    I went here: [http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/jdbc_111060.html]
    and downloaded the files for JDBC Thin.
    Then I followed this: [http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/111070_readme.html]

    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/files
    When I type echo $CLASSPATH I can see that those commands worked, but it hasn't made any difference when I try to compile.
    I still get the same error. Is it because I didn't do anything about the .so files? The readme page didn't mention them in the installation section.
    Please help! I am so stuck...

    I don't think you need the shared libraries (.so files) and given what I saw when I glanced at those pages, I don't think they'd even work for you, although maybe I just didn't read enough of it.
    What happens when you type
    javap oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceon the command line?
    How are you invoking javac? Are you perhaps passing a classpath argument?
    Are you sure that the path to the jar files is correct? Are the paths relative?
