Hello,

We have a Windows 2012 R2 server on a P9D-X (Intel C222 chipset). 2 x Raid 1 working fine (BIOS configured). Unfortunately, we can't install the GUI (Intel Rapid Storage Technology Enterprise - IRSTe). --- If we install the latest IRSTe we get the message that the setup will downgrade the driver.

Please help !

If your current version is 12.0.1.1019, and the installing version is 13.1.0.1058, I'm not sure why the OS would be flagging that as a downgrade.

Was the 12.0.1.1019 a custom driver from Asus, or the stock driver from Microsoft? If it was custom from Asus, you may have better luck with

Hello Dan,

Thanks for your tip with Asus. I did not want make my first post too long. Therefore, I did not wrote all the details.

I also download the ASUS C22x_Intel_RAID_VER380110x.zip. In C22x_Intel_RAID_VER380110x folder is the subfolder IRSTe\Install\AsusSetup.exe

Unfortunately we got the same message:

Very strange that the setup would perform a downgrade. Maybe a translation error?

Thank you,

Tom
