Hiiii

I have a slipstreamed Xp (Sp3) Cd with IaStor.sys installed supporting AHCI mode.
I using the http://unattended.ms...g/unattended.xp way to get it implementet on the Xp Cd.
This work fine if AHCI mode is enabled in Bios. If not - Xp been installed in standart Ide Mode.

It works fine, but now i see some of my machine have a error in Event viewer saying:
Error on IaStor.sys, drive not respondig, timeout and so on.
The IaStor.sys are the latest version and matching the chipset in the machines.

I realy need to get back to Ide mode, i can't reinstall this machine because of license problems in the installed software.

Earlier i have observed some registry change in this forum i be able to use, but now i didn't find them anymore.
This worked fine, i do the change, rebooted, get direcly in the Bios and set Ide mode, then restart again and all was OK.

I find a lot of text how i do this in Vista, but that's not work for me.

Can anybody help me ??

Best Regards
Christine

Which iastor.sys version do you use?
Which hardware do you use?

To set IDE drivers follow http://support.micro....com/kb/314082/

I use the Intel Matrix Storage Manager with IaStor version 8.8.1009.
This is a driver used on Intel Chipset CH9 (?). It's an old driver,
but still the newest from Intel. Checked it yesterday.
The machine is and brand new Acer Aspire 5738z with 4 Gb memory.
Acer have no driver at all to this machine.
I will take a look at the link you send me.


Thank you for the answer.

Best regards
Christine

Try a current driver first: IaStor 10.1.0.1008

How do i install it on a machine already running IaStor ?

Try on my machine, get into device manager, say upgrade driver and then reboot.
The machine hang, also in safe mode.

Try Aspire 5738Z IaStor 8.9.0.1023
http://support.acer....px?modelId=1121

Boot a PE and copy file iastor.sys to !SystemRoot!\system32\drivers

Sorry, what's PE ?
If the machine then hang, can i use safe mode and "last good configuration" ?

Can't i only take out the Hd, put it in a extern usb docking and then copy
the file IaStor.sys file into the Hd (SystemRoot!\system32\drivers)
and then putting it back to the original machine ??
