T410 System Update 4 - Intel Rapid Storage AHCI Driver "Package did not install" Error

I've not had a problem with system Update 4 until today. I went out to check for any updates and there was only one (Optional) listed so I went ahead and tried to install it.
It is Intel Rapid Storage AHCI Driver for Windows 64bit. The installed version is 9.5.7.1002 and the version trying to be installed is 9.6.0.1014. The progress bar indicated it downloaded and tried to install, but ended with the error, "1 Package did not install." Not a lot of help in that statement!?!
Has anyone had a problem like this before? Any idea how to "fix" it so I can install this update?
I even tried once with MS Security Essentials, Windows Firewall and UAC turned off with no difference.
System details are in my sig, below.
Thanks for any help,
Gary A.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yup, that's what I ended up doing - download and install the standalone file. Installed just fine

T520 - 42435gg / Sound stutter and slow Graphic performance with Intel Rapid Storage AHCI Driver

Hi everybody,
I have serious Problems with my 42435gg
Any time I install the Intel Storage AHCI Driver (I've tried plenty of different versions) which is suggested by System Update I experience a horrible Sound stutter and slow Graphic performance in Windows 7 64-Bit.
The funny thing in this case: If the external e-sata port is connected the problems do not occur. If the port is unused again, the stutter begins immediately.
The only thing I can do is using the Windows internal Storage Driver with which I am not able to use my DVD recorder for example.
The device was sent to lenovo for hardware testing with no result. It was sent back without any repairing.
Anybody experience on this?
Kind regards,
Daniel

Did you try the 11.5 RST beta? Load up DPClat and see if DPC conditions are favorable.
What are you using to check graphics performance?

Can't install Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver on Yoga 2 11

The Lenovo driver list for the Yoga 2 11 includes Intel Rapid Storage Technology (IRST) Driver for 64-bit Windows. However, attempting to install this results in the message, "No Appropriate Driver to be Installed". Likewise, attempting to install the Rapid Storage Technology driver from Intel's site results in the error, "The platform is not supported."
Windows Device Manager shows WDC WD5000M22K-24Z1LT0-SSHD-16GB for the disk drive name, so it appears that the drive should support the RAID configuration for SSD caching. This is consistent with the specs for the laptop.
Is it normal for the drivers to not install? It seems odd, given the placement on Lenovo's driver list. I'd like to set the Acceleration Mode to Maximized as described in Intel's User Guide.

Hi Jakobsjoqvist,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m really sorry to hear that you had trouble installing Intel Rapid Storage AHCI driver in your Lenovo Thinkpad T430s.
I would suggest you to try uninstalling the driver and run the Intel Driver update utility which will auto-detect the missing drivers and will install the latest version for you.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Mithun.

Download this:http://www.station-drivers.com/index.php/downloads/func-startdown/94/(100% turstable website) double click the exe and let files extract, browse in the new folder and launch the setup file. then reboot and check if it BSOD again.

I downloaded the Acrobat 11 trial and I can open the product. During the install it deleted the existing print driver and did not install a new print driver so I CAN Not create and print pdf files.

Hard Drive Replacement - Windows 7 Updates - Intel Rapid Storage - Lightscribe error 4224

I recently needed to replace a damaged hard drive from overheating on a HP Pavilion dv4 notebook that comes with Windows 7 Home Premium. The whole notebook had to be taken apart so that the dust, which had created a thick sweater, literally, blocking the CPU cooling fans, could be cleaned.
But that was done, it's over with, just dreading the cleanup in the future. Installing a new hard drive was unexpectedly difficult... replacing the physical part had nothing to it but, Windows 7 Updates could not work and Windows 7 SP1 installation from the dvd drive or otherwise did not work. To make it work I installed Intel Rapid Storage Technology (AHCI) package. I used the System Recovery Discs to format and install to factory settings before all else, of course...
All was nice and dandy until I started using Lightscribe to label the recovery discs. Error 4224 - communication error with the drive... etc etc. Updated the drivers and software from HP, completed all Windows 7 updates, updated the Lightscribe System Software and Template Maker, updated BIOS and that was a good thing, kept installing and uninstalling preinstalled HP bundles and antivirus sofware for another few days of irritating work to no avail. Finally, the culprit was found in the Intel Rapid Storage Technology installation!
So, without Intel Rapid Storage Technology package there are no Windows 7 updates and the Windows Genuine error comes up, but with Intel Rapid Storage Technoly there's no Lightscribe functionality. I'm throwing my hands in the air after so much painstaking time spent with these issues. Is there any way around this bind? Is there a known fix to get the new hard drive to be recognized by Microsoft and have the Lightscribe functionality back?

Sometimes issues can arise when a driver is downloaded directly from the manufacturer, because in some cases, there are minor tweaks made to the one made specifically for your computer.
Sometimes the developers (combination of HP software developers and the 3rd party maker's software developers) have to tweak the maker's original driver to work with all of the other components inside your particular computer. All of the dv4-2000s may have, for instance, a specific technology of hard drives and optical drives, but each different dv4-2XXX may have different brands of hard drives/optical drives.
Graphics drivers are that way. I always recommend getting the ATI driver, not from ATI's website, but directly from the HP Driver Page, because getting the version on ATI's website will cause some issues with the HP Framework (which is responsible for making the whole web of specific components all work together) on the computer. After that several things have to be uninstalled and the correct versions have to be installed just to undo what that one driver version did.
It gets a little complicated. Suffice it to say, always try to download it from the HP Driver Page for your model first. Then if that version or previous versions don't work, try downloading directly from the 3rd party maker's page. I hope that makes sense. Let me know if I need to clarify anything
I'm going to recommend the following drivers:
Intel Chipset Driver version 9.1.1.1020 A
Intel Management Engine Interface Driver version 1.00 A
Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver version 8.9.2.1002 A
Intel Turbo Boost Technology Driver version 1.0.0.1030 A
Essential System Updates version 7.00 A
LightScribe System Software version 1.18.18.1
Also, please check and see what BIOS version you're currently on. To do that, press the FN + ESC keys and look for 'F.##' and let me know what that is. I'll compare it to the latest version and link you to that one if necessary.

HT1218 Time capsule firmware update 7.6 to 7.6.1 did not work, error message 6272. What do I do now?

Firmware update from 7.6 to 7.6.1 did not work: error number 6272. What do I do now?

Connect by ethernet.. press reset and try again.
But going from 7.6 to 7.6.1 is like adding roaches to bug kingdom.. a wiser move is 7.5.2!!

HP LaserJet Pro 300/400 (M375nw & M475dn) - Driver packages will not install

Hello all,
I need some assistance with a very persistent and frustrating issue trying to get driver software packages for our LaserJet M375nw & M475dn to install correctly. We are running Windows 7 Pro x64 on HP 8300 desktop PCs.
We have these printers printing properly via our print server and the proper .inf driver but need the ability to scan to the PC. I would like to install the HP-provided software packages (which include the Scan driver & utility) but am running into the error below.
"A problem occurred while preparing to install software to your system. Please restart your computer, and run this installer again. If the problem persists, please check the product support web site for your product."
I get this error at 80% in the "preparing to install" process. I am using the latest drivers from the website for each of these models (which actually use the same package). I have tried both the Full and Basic driver package with the same results.
We have these printers installed via a static IP on the Network, not USB. I am trying to install as a Local Administrator. UAC is disabled. The PC is fully updated and doesn't have much in the way of custom software. It has SCCM client, MS SQL Native Client, Google Earth, Adobe, Trend Micro AV, OnBase, Office 2007 and Chrome installed.
Here are some of the things I've tried w/o success:
Tried installing with latest drivers from HP website
Ran all Windows updates
Ran the Scrubber uninstaller provided in the package / Running "uninstall" executable from HP software
Disabled all non-MS startup programs/services in msconfig, disabled Antivirus, rebooted, tried to again
Restarting computer (many, many times between different troubleshooting steps)
Tried disabling "Smart Install" (though I think this only applies to USB connections)
Checked print spooler - it indeed is started/running properly
Uninstalled all HP-branded software
Can any of you offer some help please? I'm not sure what to try next.
Some other posts I've looked at w/ no success are:

Intel Rapid Storage Technology with a single mechanical hard drive.

Do you recommend installing Intel Rapid Storage Technology with a single mechanical hard drive.
MSI website suggest these IRST drivers for my motherboard:
- Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver
- Intel Rapid Storage Technology Floppy Driver for 7x series
- Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver for 7x series
Board: MSI Z77A-GD55 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
Hard Drive: SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 ST1000DM005/HD103SJ 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
Multiple responses/opinions is encouraged for complete verification.
Thanks!

Hi,
Sorry to dig up this thread.
This is from Z77A-G45 driver page:
1. Intel Management Engine Driver
2. Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver
3. Intel Rapid Storage Technology Floppy Driver for 7x series
4. Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver for 7x series
http://www.msi.com/product/mb/Z77A-G45.html#/?div=Driver&os=Win7%2064
Like BiGxSHOOTER, I have a single drive and I don't know the importance of each driver. Can someone tell me which ones I should install and in what order?
Thanks

Lenovo G500 - Intel Rapid Storage Technology" SATA disk on Controller 0, Port Unknown detected"

Hi Folks,
I have a lenovo G500 laptop which i had purchased during thanksgiving vaction in 2013. The machine was working fine till June 2014 when I stated getting Blue Screen of death with error messages "irql_not_less_or_equal" The OS was windows 8.1. This created lot of problem while booting , the machine would not boot at all.
Along with this message I started getting this message "Intel Rapid Storage Technology" SATA disk on Controller 0, Port Unknown detected". This message was coming very often.
I along with Lenovo support did all the things possible, like factory reset etc. Finally the machine was sent out to depot for repair in July 2014. They replaced the hard drive and sent the machine back.
I got the machine back on 22nd July and since last week ,ie, 14th July I have started to get the issues again. My IE and Firefox will suddenly hangon and the blue screen will appear again with same message "irql_not_less_or_equal" occasionally. Yesterday i started getting Sata disk message again.
I wanted to understand why this message is coming back along with blue screen of death. Is there some problem with Windows OS or hard disk seems to crash again?
Thanks in advance
shailesh

hi Shailesh,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
From this article, this is the IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL possible cause:
"This bug check is issued if paged memory (or invalid memory) is accessed when the IRQL is too high.
The error that generates this bug check usually occurs after the installation of a faulty device driver, system service, or BIOS.
If you encounter bug check 0xA while upgrading to a later version of Windows, this error might be caused by a device driver, a system service, a virus scanner, or a backup tool that is incompatible with the new version."
From your description, It's possible that the HDD or the RAM is faulty but it's also possible that it's a software (driver) issue -- which is the hard drive (SATA) controller.
To verify, I would:
1. Run a diagnostic on the HDD (via Lenovo's Storage Quick Test or via HD Tune)
- http://www.hdtune.com/faq_1.html
2. Run a diagnostic on the RAM (via Memtest86+)
- RAM - Test with Memtest86+
3, Read the BSOD dump file to see what file caused the crash
- How to solve Windows 8 crashes in less than a minute
- If the file is associated with the Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver (SATA Controller), uninstall the software from the Control Panel > Programs and let Windows install a generic Windows driver.
- Link to picture
If you get an error after running the diagnostic test, I recommend you contact Lenovo and report the issue.

Error in Intel Rapid Storage Technology "Reset to normal"

Hi,
My Notebook is HP Envy 17 3D
OS: Windows 7 Home 64 bit
When I start the pc I got an error in my hard disk raid system. but when i choose continue, then i can access my windows do any thing but I have to open the Intel Rapid Storage Technology and I see an alert on my hard disk and then I have to click on 'Reset to normal"
I am facing slowness in my pc.

Hey there gykdbk,
The ExpressCache software on the SSD is designed to improve overall system performance and greatly speed up Windows PC startup, application launches and data access. Further information regarding ExpressCache can be at this knowledgebase article. For this software to work, you do no need the Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver installed. When running the command eccmd.exe -info I assume you are finding this software is running as per normal, and you are not recieving any error messages, such as ERROR** ECCmd Request device is not available. However, if you do encounter this software not working as per normal there are some instructions here to uninstall and reinstall this software. I hope this helps.

Need help with XP instal. stuck at: Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver

I've bought a new 2.0 ghz laptop with vista blah blah but i want to change to XP.
I've
bought a new copy of XP and am ready to go then first issue was during
installation the screen says can't find harddrive installed.
I
then found some thread somewhere which i've lost that said to buy an
external floppy drive and downloaded that floppy driver thingy that i
need to get past that stage from the toshiba website..
FYI driver name: SA200 ACHI F6-1017-XP
That
worked fine.. when it said press F8 if you agree to install XP i nearly
wet myself.. anyhow after it formatted the drive it then asked me this:
Insert the disk labeled:
*Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver*
into drive A:
* Press ENTER when ready
WTF are you talking about laptop? can someone please help me past this stage?
:-( :-( i only want XP installed.
So far its been like 3 weeks since i've been trying to install it
Message was edited by: IamMILOS

Here are detailed instructions I found earlier:
Installing a Retail (street copy) version of Windows XP on a Vista Toshiba Laptop.
- If the Toshiba laptop has a seperate BIOS for XP and Vista, download and flash the XP BIOS over the Vista BIOS.
- If XP Setup does not detect the SATA Hard Disk, simply turn on "SATA Compatibility Mode" in the BIOS if applicable. If this option is not available, follow these steps:
1) Download the Windows XP SATA F6 driver from the Toshiba Support/Downloads Website.
If an individual F6 driver is not available, download and unzip the Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver. The Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver package should contain some folders under the "F6flpy" folder. For example: ICH7M_32bit for an ICH7 based chipset when installing Windows XP 32bit.
2) Copy the F6 driver files (iastor.inf, etc..) to a blank floppy disk. The actual files must reside in the root directory of the Floppy Disk. For example, A:\iastor.inf, A:\iaahci.inf, etc..
3) Use a Toshiba USB Floppy Drive with the Toshiba notebook. (some non-Toshiba USB Floppy Drives may not function properly during XP setup)
4) Boot from Windows XP CD-ROM, start the installation and ensure the floppy disk is inserted in the USB Floppy Drive.
5) When XP Setup prompts you to press F6 to install a Storage Driver, immediately press F6.
6) When XP Setup prompts you to select a SATA driver, select the appropriate driver and continue. For example: ICH7M Intel(R) 82801GBM SATA AHCI Controller, ICH8M Intel(R) 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller
7) Keep the Floppy Drive attached and Floppy Disk inserted until XP has completed its installation. Do not Partition or Format the Hard Disk during XP Setup. The SATA drivers from the Floppy Disk are copied and stored on the Hard Disk during XP installation.

Intel rapid storage high cpu usage

i noticed that after upgrading to windows 10 the laptop was running kinda sluggish, so i looked around and saw that something called IAStorDataSvc (32 bit) uses between 25 to 30 percent of the cpu all the time. i tried opening intel rapid storage control center but it shows some error message, what can i do? can i just stop the process? or will that mess something up? thanks

I upgraded to Windows 10 this morning and get the same issue. Any idea what this does and how to fix it?

Intel Rapid Storage Technology (pre-OS) driver installation

My desktop machine is built on Gigabyte GA-Z87-UD3H and Gigabyte provides the latest driver for Intel Rapid Storage Technology (IRST), which I installed after installing
the OS. Same goes for my Lenovo Thinkpad-T420. And for both machine, checking the controller device under the IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers section in Device Manager I see the driver has been updated to the latest version.
I set the SATA controller to AHCI from BIOS
On the desktop machine I have one WD 2TB BLACK & one WD 3TB Green
- I don’t use RAID, & no chance of using in near future, but according to Intel IRST improves performance in single disk scenario too.
Now I have the following questions –
What is the actual purpose of IRST (pre-OS install) driver that doesn’t get served with a post-OS driver that I installed? There must be some difference, otherwise there wouldn’t be a pre-OS version of the driver. Right?
In the pre-OS procedure (loading the drivers at OS-installation time) after successfully completing the OS installation, do I need that post-OS driver? Because after installing from that one I got a quick launch icon that runs the IRST configuration application.
Where do get that after installing the pre-OS driver?
As it is “pre-OS”, when I load it at OS-installation time, does it updates anything at BIOS level or anywhere other than HDD? That’s because I’m going to dual boot Windows 7 with Windows 8.1, and after installing Windows 7 when I install Windows 8.1 &
load the IRST driver for that, is there any chance of any “overwriting” or OS-incompatibility? In short, is there anything specific to follow while installing
the second OS?

Hi,
IRST(Intel Rapid Storage Technology) is mainly used for RAID setup and management.
According to Intel, it provides benefits to users of single drives as well.
http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/imsm/sb/CS-020784.htm
It's recommend you install the proper version which is applied to every OS.
Pre-OS install driver is mainly basic driver used to make sure boot system successfully. Post-OS driver is primarily intended to some function working better.
