Windows Vista 64 bit on GT627... SATA controller?

Hi all,

I have tried to run windows vista ultimate (sp1) 64 a bunch of times now, and the 32bit version works well. Everytime I install, I get to the setting up user accounts and passwords screen, then the computer reboots itself, and I am stuck in the black screen with green loading bar loop.

I am told this has to do with ACHI and the sata drivers, and have tried to run my drive on IDE compatitble and enhanced already.

I'm running Windows 7 now to get around the problem..

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

 

Hi all, I have installed the chipset drivers, but can't install intel matrix drivers!

Please help

Thanks!

 

You can update the SATA controller manually from device manager under the “ IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers” devices
Download the x64 Intel SATA Controller Driver from here

Download “64-bit Floppy Configuration Utility” and unzip it and you will get the SATA controller driver AKA Matrix Storage

x86(32 bit) from here

 

hey kingtron, thanks again.

regarding the vista 64 issue, can i put these drivers onto a usb key and load them into the next install?

thanks

 

sorry, zip file contains an executable (that does nothing when i attempt to run it). windows 7 device manager does not pick that up, am i missing something?

thanks again

 

yes sure , you can load the driver at the beginning of vista installation.

by the way
the latest chipset drivers for now is:
9.1.1.1011

use this method to install:
open or run CMD
type:
infinst_autol.exe -OVERALL

or

setup.exe -OVERALL

Updates and overwrite ALL INF drivers on all available devices
even if third party drivers are currently installed (Like Microsoft)

 

awesome, perfect i'm going to give it a try now.

i'm using this computer for research so i'm torn between wind7 and vista, (compatibility versus gaming haha)

 

ah, goddamn noob, i'm in command line... and then... the executable that came from intel's site was f6flpy64...

damn noobs

 

there is no executable inside f6flpy6488.zip
download "64-bit Floppy Configuration Utility" only
then unzip "f6flpy6488.zip"
then you will get:

Code:

iaahci.cat
iaAHCI.inf
iastor.cat
iaStor.inf
IaStor.sys
license.txt
TXTSETUP.OEM

this is the "SATA Controller driver" , no need for other things ,

and you can put it on USB

 

edit

what a retard found the right lkink

 

still no go. got file with 64-bit floppy confi files in it, also have the executable as well, having no luck as of yet with cmd line install

 

the "setup.exe -OVERALL" switch is for the chipset driver ONLY and you can download it from here


the f6flpy6488.zip file is the SATA controller driver and it does not have exe inside , you must install it manually , and you can download it from here

 

alright - is there a way i can force the install through device manager? windows 7 says that it already has the most current drivers...

thanks for sticking in here kingtron haha

 

No problem spider you're welcome
The sata controller driver is for vista64 bit only .
anyway you can try to update it under windows 7 x64
if it is like this picture , then you don't need to update it

 

right, it is like that. the issue i'm having is that when i set my bios to "ahci" mode rather than "ide" (compatible), it bsod's before windows desktop

thanks

 

Is your copy of vista an SP1 copy?

I have seen this problem only on the original release vista dvd's without sp1. If not you can slipstream the service pack into your dvd.

 

yeah searches only revealed that this was occurring in non-sp1 vistas, but mine is apparently a sp1 slipstreamed.

is it possible to use the windows installation utility (booting off the dvd) to put these drivers on, and then not re-install windows and run as usual?

thanks

 

Hello!

First: Sorry for my bad english!

i have the same problem, like the threadstarter.

I have tried to run windows vista ultimate (sp1) 64 a bunch of times now, and the 32bit version works well. Everytime I install, I get to the setting up user accounts and passwords screen, then the computer reboots itself, and I am stuck in the black screen with green loading bar loop.


How can i fix that problem?!?!?

i have also the MSI GT627

Please help me, I installed Vista the 5th time now...

and i had included the chipset driver (all) in the vista ultimate x64 installation

thx..

 

hm nobody knows a fix to this problem??
