"Your system does not appear to have Intel rapid start technology enable"
1.i didn't see a "Intel rapid start" in the bios
2. I've update my bios
3. When I've try reinstall the driver I got this error "this computer does not meet the min requirements for installing the software"
I need help.
tnx.
Solved!

hi O_hei,
If you're running on the 66cn52ww BIOS or above, I'm afraid the BIOS is limitting you from enabling the Intel Rapid Start Technology feature. For now, try to uninstall the Intel Rapid Start Technology under Control Panel (large icon view) > Programs and Features to get rid of the "Your system does not appear to have Intel rapid start technology enable" error on startup.
Upon checking, the Yoga 13 here in the lab runs on the 66cn51ww BIOS and has the Intel Rapid Start Technology feature.
Spoiler (Highlight to read)
I recommend you visit the lenovo website once an updated BIOS is released that enable this feature.
Best regards,
neokenchi

How to use Intel Rapid Start technology on my ThinkPad Edge 531 computer?

I have a Thinkpad Edge 531 (model 6885-73G) preloaded with Windows 7 64bit. According to the appropriate user guide (see Thinkpad E531 User Guide - page 108) and chipset specifications Mobile Intel® HM77 Express this ThinkPad model supports Intel Rapid Start Technology with a special partition on the SSD M.2.Such an SSD with the specification M.2 (see MyDigitalSSD Super Cache 2) I bought it and installed successfully on my ThinkPad, which can run a cache software FNet HybriDisk on.
However, even if I proceed exactly according to the installation script by Intel, see (Intel Rapid Start Technology User Guide) or by the installation script by Lenovo community, (see Edge E330 and Intel Rapid Start), I can not put into operation Intel Rapid Start Technology on my ThinkPad, although I use the installed SSD disk with an alone partition of appropriate type (with ID type 84 on MBR) with more allocated space than the size of RAM for my ThinkPad and with the currently deployed version of BIOS (1.29) and current drivers, such is Intel (R) Rapid Storage Technology Driver version 11.1.5.1001 downloaded from the webiste of Lenovo support for this model ThinkPad Edge 531.
Since, in my opinion, based on the above specifications declared by the manufacturer Lenovo and Intel, this ThinkPad model should support Intel Rapid Start Technology, I would like therefore to know how this technology on my ThinkPad to put into operation, because of which I also bought this ThinkPad model. Does exist for this model ThinkPad Edge 531 some specific deployment scenario of Intel Rapid Start Technology? Does anyone have any practical experience with the launch of this technology on those ThinkPad models? Can it be expected that the full support of Intel Rapid Start Technology for the ThinkPad Edge 531 will occur after the release of a new version of the BIOS or a new version of Solid State Drive Firmware Update Utility with support for MyDigitalSSD Super Cache 2 published on the website of Lenovo support?
Thanks in advance for any advice and guidance with the launch of Intel Rapid Start Technology on my ThinkPad Edge 531.

Lenovo IdeaPad U310 Intel Rapid Start Technology with WIndows 7 Ultimate

Hello,
I have upgraded my Windows 7 Home Premium to Ultimate. Got it in my domain and everything seems normal . But I wanted to check the options of that energy saving settings and can't find any information about, when does my computer go to hibernate. He does use the stand by, but for how long? Until the battery is low? That makes no sense.
The computer must go in hibernate or is this with ultrabooks going other ways?

Hi
I have further investigated and found a solution for hibernation
In order to enable hibernate in Lenovo Machines SSD support models, you will need to restart and Enter into the BIOS Setting
1. Press Fn+ F2 to enter BIOS
2. Choose "Configuration > SATA controller working mode" as "RAID";
3. Select "Configuration>Intel Rapid Start Technology", choose " iRST Support" and "Entry on S3 critical battery event" as "Disable";
. It will then automatically return to an available Windows power options setting. However, iRST (Intel Rapid Start Technology) does not have the ability to wake a system from hibernate.
Now restart the system and you will find hibernation option is enabled under power option
Hope This Helps
Cheers!!!

Intel Rapid Start Technology does not appear to be installed

How do I get rid of this message?
It's an HP Envy dv7 Notebook, D0X38EA#ABU
I haven't upgraded any part of the hardware - it's configured as it came out of the box. It's running Win 8.1
I have looked through the forum and downloaded manuals and it all gets extremely technical very quickly. So I downloaded a driver from intel and it says "This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software".
I am just a simple user. I can guess that the Intel thing will make the computer boot faster. That would be nice but I'm not qualified to start faffing around in the BIOS. Nor do I want to be.
Please just tell me how to make the message go away. It's annoying.

Intel Rapid Start Technology - Error Message upon start-up

I have a fairly new Lenovo U310 that has been nothing but problems since I purchased it. Recently, it has been taking a long time to start up and when it finally hits the desktop, an error message pops up that says "Your system does not appear to have Intel Rapid Start Technology enabled." I hit 'OK' but there's not apparent way to fix this problem. I've tried downloading the IRST drivers from Intel, but trying to install them give me the error message saying that my system can't support the item. Help?

I'm afraid I don't know the layout of the BIOS options on Ideapads, only on Thinkpads - with the latter it is on something like the third screen of options and it is clearly labelled as Intel RapidStart.

U410 Intel Rapid Start Technology Driver - failure

For about the last two weeks (for some unknown reason) Intel Rapid Start Technology is unable to start on my U410 Laptop. I attempted to reinstall the driver from the Lenovo page, but when I get to the install point I get a message stating my device does not meet the minimum specifications for this technology!
It's making start ups and logging on a major drag
Has anyone experienced this before? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Rory

Never found a way to fix it. Me and my friends are pretty proficient with computers too. Just been shutting down my computer every time I'm done using it. Lenovo said we can send it to them and they'll take a look or replace under warranty

Y410p Cannot install Intel Rapid Start Technology

Hi Guys, I have a Y410p and I have replaced the HDD with a SSD on windows 8. Before changed to SSD, i did not try to install the intel rapid start and thus I never know if it could work before. I re-install Windows 8 on the SSD and also installed Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver. When I install the Intel Rapid Start, I got this error: "this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing this software" I have checked the BIOS, I cannot see any relevant settings and I just make sure AHCI enabled. I have done the parition (on the GPT) using the set ID = D3BFE2DE-3DAF-11DF-BA40-E3A556D89593 I have followed this guide (UEFI)http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/rapid_start_technology_user_guide_for_uefi1.pdf Is it Y410P cannot have the Intel Rapid Start installed because of the chipset or the BIOS? Do I miss anything? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Your system does not appear to have intel rapid start technology

I have a Lenovo U310 with windows 8 and wish I could take it back. Problem after problem with this computer, both hardware and software related. I started getting this message about the Intel rapid start a couple of days ago. I went into this forum and one of the specilists suggested going into BIOS and change the SATA controller working mode to RAID and to enable IRST which I did. Now the computer can not start. It tries to load and it says that the recovery system failed. I can get to the BIOS menu again but I wont let me get to configuration screen. Any help would be much appreciated. thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hi yzarate,
I'm sorry to hear what happened,
If the system is giving you a failed to start Option, Restarting it May sometime give you option Like Safe mode,
If you're getting that, select that option and it should be able to start you system while in RAID then restart the system again once booted back up.
If you're not getting that message I would suggest go back to BIOS
go to the Exit TAB, Select Load optimized default or press F9 to load defaults, F10 to save and Exit and hit enter,
Try loading BIOS again and see if the configuration tab will be available,
Best Regards

Intel Rapid Start on Ideapad Yoga 13

Hi and thanks for reading my message:
i have a problem with the Intel Rapid Start Technology on my Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13:
The IRST is not automatically starting after Boot. The "Intel Rapid Start Technology Service" Service is installed and set to automatic start and it's running without problems but the IRST Manager is still not running (cant's see it in the system tray of the WIndows 8 Desktop Mode). When i run it manually by calling the "Intel Rapid Start Technology Manager" (configuration window pops up), it works fine.
What i try to achieve: because IRST is almost as fast as sleep mode, i would like to use it always instead of sleep mode, so i have set the Timer in the ISRT manager to enable and 0 Minutes. So with the IRST running in the background, it is working to go to IRST Hibernate directly after sleep mode. But when i restart my Yoga, its not working any more
What i tried to do:
Install the IRST 1000 times
Re-Create the hibernate partition (using this manual) (id=D3BFE2DE-3DAF-11DF-BA40-E3A556D89593)
Check ISRT is enabled in BIOS
Do you have any other idea what to do?
Thank you very much for your help and best regards!
Manuel

That limited thing has started happening to me as of a couple days ago too. No wifi issues before that.

Lenovo S400 error in installing Rapid start technology

I recently installed windows 8 on my laptop all drivers were installed perfectly except Intel Rapid Start Technology, on installing it is showing that your system doesn't meet the minimum requirement. Also the action center is showing install driver for power management and card reader which I have already installed but still it is continuously showing this message.

hi madhurgandhi,
Welcome to the Forums.
Installing the Intel Rapid Start Technology requires an Intel Rapid Start feature in the BIOS. Upon looking, this is not included in the S400's BIOS so this software will not work.
As for the power management and card reader notifications, are these the drivers that you installed?
Realtek Card Reader Driver
Version: 6.2.9200.39044
Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit)
Lenovo Energy Management
Version: 8.0.2.3
Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit)
AFAIK, If the card reader and the energy management softwares are both instaled and working without any errors, you should be fine.

[Z77A-GD65] Intel Rapid Storage Technology 11.5.0.1207

Hi,
I've been updating some drivers today on a new build (in sig. below) with W8RP following the recent release of new drivers.
Updated drivers to latest for Chipset, VGA, Intel Management Engine, but when I get to RST I get the following error;
'This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software.'
I've rebooted after each driver update.
This also happened to me a few days ago on a previous OS install on this machine, but on that occasion the version on the supplied DVD with the MB was the same version number and worked fine, of course this is now out of date.
I have my SATA controller set to RAID and I see my drives in the RAID ROM prior to POST but as yet no RAID ARRAY set up, but last time I did this, that was done when following the prompts when starting RST the first time.
I'm trying to use my SSD to accelerate my HDD but not sure why I get the above error message :-s

Hi xmad,
Thanks for that, somehow some confusion had crept into proceedings and I was trying to use the Rapid Start package which is now no surprise why it was complaining at me because I don't have that switched on in bios at the moment.
The link you supplied is right, I had that already but somehow had got it confused with the Rapid Start one. It also has the floppy file set for supplying during OS install which is not separately highlighted on the downloads page like it is for the earlier version. Extracted and tested the setup file in the package you linked to 'intel_rst8_mb' which completes setup now.
I've taken my driver / utility load sequencing from Live Update 5 History Tab prior to me uninstalling it.

I had problems when trying to install USB3 driver (W7 x64) on prior install of W8RP because it complained at me for not having appropriate hardware so maybe it is already catered for in W8 but I don't have any USB3 devices to test and can't see any reference to USB3 in Device Manager. I guess it depends whether W8 includes the Intel driver :s
Going to redo my OS install so I can satisfy myself that I've got a good clean install to make a drive image from.

(Re)activate Intel Rapid start technolgy (RST) & RAID @U310

Dear community,
I have been frustrated about this for long time. Got U310 with win8(24GB SSD+500GB HDD).
People says I should set RAID in BIOS. But I got only error and cannot do recovery. So I set back to ACHI mode and system restored. Then error: "Your system does not apear to have Intel Rapid Start technology enabled".
- Yes, I have tried to set BIOS ACHI to RAID, no start.
- SSD 24GB is in device manager, not paritioned.
- intel RAID software installed
- So the point is: I have to activate in BIOS ACHI to RAID, but then Pc will not start.
So whats is the problem?
Now the partitions looks as this:
Could anyone help me, how to reactivate the RAID/ fast caching technolgy of RST?
Another frustration is: how to backup my system(win8) to USB media, so that I could restore factory state?
appreciate any advices, thanks in advance!

Hi, bradlutz1
thanks for your reply! How do you identify it is defective? You have now a RAID enabled U310 or U410?
My SSD HD can be manually partitioned and use as a normal R/W HDD. Just it cannot set to RAID I think, which should be set to before install windows 8. checking into BIOS, the Intel Rapid Storage technolgy (iRST) is enabled. But I still have problem( see screenshot): How does it look like for yours?
On the other side, I use windows 8 recovery programm created a USB drive as recovery media. I want to use it to reset /recovery my PC to factory default with RAID eanbale.
First I set BOIS to RAID. Boot from HDD, but still failed, it says (I think AHCI could go thru):
Seeing from the partition picture in my first post, I think the last 20G partition is Lenovo recovery, but how to backup it and restore?
Very annoying also, the Lenovo program OneKey Recovery program 8.0(for win8) gives no option to create factory DVD/USB media, while its ver. 7 did:

9470m Intel Rapid Start, Intel Rapid Storage. Is it working?

When we image our Elitebook Folio 9470m SSD notebooks with Windows 7, part of the imaging process is to install Intel Rapid Storage and Rapid Start on all these notebooks. We download the drivers from the support.hp.com driver download page for Windows 7 Profession 64-bit.
The software/drivers installs successfully with no errors, but as far as I can tell, the laptops are not booting or shutting down faster than other model laptops with SSDs that do not have this software installed. May even be slower, because it seems like the Rapid Start Technology is hanging and delaying the the shut down process when we shut down the laptops.
We have verbose status messages enabled, so when shutting down the laptops, we often see a message saying something that roughly says in other words "waiting for Intel Rapid Start Technology to shut down."
What is installing this software really accomplishing and is it effective on SSD disks and disks that have full disk encryption installed?
How can I tell if this software is doing the job it is supposed to be doing or maybe we should stop installing it on our notebooks all together?

Are these using regular 2.5 inch SSDs or mSATA mSSDs? I suspect the issue is with Intel Rapid Start. That is solely for the purpose of hibernating and recovering from hibernation faster. It really serves no other purpose and works optimally with an mSATA cache drive (which your model does not have) but does improve resume from sleep on any SSD. Intel Rapid Storage enables native command queing but that is in place anyway if the storage controller is set to ahci. I would also suspect that if your drives are encrypted fully, then Intel Rapid Start is having a problem trying to write startup information to the drive and that accounts for the hang at shutdown. Do you configure the laptops to use hibernation?
I would get two otherwise identical machines and configure one with and one without Intel Rapid Start and see if you notice any difference in bootup and shutdown time. Even on those where you have already installed Rapid Start, it can be turned off in the BIOS, thus disabling it. Personally I do not use hibernation so I do not enable Rapid Start in the BIOS and do not install the software. Rapid Storage should not cause a problem.

Intel Rapid Start stops working when RAM upgraded

I have a brand new ENVY dv7-7212nr notebook running Windows 8 64-bit.
This machine has Intel Rapid Storage Technology which caches hard disk data (I think on the 32GB SSD) and Intel Rapid Start Technology which stores active memory in the SSD cache (I think) when the computer enters a hibernation state.
The first thing I did was upgrade the RAM from 8GB to 16GB. It works fine, but then I get an error message "your system does not appear to have intel rapid start technology enabled."
HP provides very little information on this, basically none. I assume the memory is being cached on the SSD, but I don't know how to verify this. Also I notice that acceleration is not enabled under the Rapid Storage Tecnology applet for either drive.
I called tech support twice but the techs knew nothing about upgrading RAM beyond the usual and couldn't get it to work either.
Does anybody even know exactly how the SSD is being used in my system? That would be valuable information to me.
Thanks in advance!
This question was solved.

Thanks for reading my reply.
The "little SSD" is still a drive and not a chip, although you are right that it is little and it is attached to the motherboard. It is little because its form factor is not the typical 2.5 inch size but what's call "mSATA". In fact, the service manual for this dv7-7212nr laptop shows you how you can remove and replace or upgrade this mSATA SSD:
Below is a comparison of how small the mSATA form factor is to other drive sizes (from Left to Right: mSATA, 1.8", 2.5", 3.5"):
So if I want to replace the mSATA 32 GB SSD with a 64 GB SSD, I would have to get a mSATA SSD, not the typical 2.5" ones. So for this dv7-7212nr laptop, there can be 3 total drives installed: one in the mSATA slot and two in the 2.5'' drive bays. However, the default configuration as sold by HP only has one mSATA 32 GB SSD and one 750 GB SATA hard drive, with the remaining drive bay empty.
This dv7-7212nr laptop does contain all the latest (and perhaps more complex) technologies and HP probably does not expect the typical user/consumer to go and muck around all the default settings. However, if one is curious and willing to make the effort to learn, the material is just a google search away.
Here are the instructions for setting up Intel Rapid STORAGE Technology (aka Intel Smart Response Technology): http://download.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/intel_smart_response_technology_user_guide.pdf
For this dv7-7212nr laptop, you can ignore steps 1-4 because the BIOS is already configured properly from the factory (unless some changes were made by the end user).
Here are the instructions for setting up Intel Rapid Start Technology:
http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/rapid_start_technology_user_guide_v11.pdf
For this particular laptop, ignore steps 1-7 but it is important to do this first: set up Intel Smart Response Technology as above, making sure to allow enough space on the SSD for a hibernation partition that is equal to or greater than the total size of RAM installed. Then follow steps 8 to the end of the guide. It is important to set up Intel Smart Response before Intel Rapid Start because Intel Smart Response will destroy all partitions and data on the disk (if you set up a hibernation partition for Intel Rapid Start first, it will be removed when you set up Intel Smart Response).
I have successfully ENable and DISable these technologies on my laptop using the above guides (with my modifications). WARNING: back up all data before trying any of this.
In your case, I agree that you can also disable Rapid START and just use the whole SSD for acceleration along with the 16 GB RAM upgrade.
