Installing Windows 2019 Server on M10JNP2SB needs drivers.

[Willytom]

Just brought M10JNP2SB Server Board to replaced my old Dell server. I try to install windows 2019 server. During the initial loading of Windows Server software,  a windows popup ask for media drivers. So I point to USBdrive that contains the Version: 6.2.0.1239 and the F6 folder container VROC-F6_iaStorE-Win8_64 path. and another windows popup "select the driver to install which shown two selections "Intel C600+/C220+ series chipset SATA RAID controller" I select either one is not working. 

Anyone can point to a correct driver that will work Windows 2019 or Windows 2022.

This is the latest version I can find on Intel download driver section;

Version: 6.2.0.1239 (Latest) Date: 7/2/2020

Which doesn't work with Windows 2019.

Thanks

Hello Willytom,

Thank you for joining the community

Looks like you are following this article How to set the RAID Configuration in the Intel® Server Board...

Make sure you complete all the steps listed since the naming conventions have changed on this system:

1. Advanced > Compatibility Support Mode (CSM) (Enabled)
2. Chipset > South Bridge > SATA and RSTe Configuration > Set "SATA Mode Selection" to RAID
3. Press F4 to Save and Exit BIOS.
4. Press <Ctrl>+<I> while the system is booting to enter Intel RSTe SATA Option-ROM.
5. For Intel® Server Board M10JNP2SB

The driver is the latest at the moment. All the other available drivers for this system are found here: Intel® Server Board M10JNP2SB

Hello Jose,

After many back and forth with Warner Support Technician, it finally able to load Windows 2019. It happen to be that my Windows 2019 USB image was formatted wrong. 

The correct format is GPT with NTSF.

I have another question where do I download the Windows software that can manage the RAID controller.

Thank you,

Willytom

Hello Willytom,

I am glad to hear that you were able to install Windows 10 on your system finally. For RAID management we usually recommend the Intel® RAID Web Console 3 (RWC3) for Windows* . You want to give it a try since this board is slightly different that all the other Intel server boards. There is also a Intel Rapid Storage Technology Enterprise Management Utility but it is not available for this system at this moment.
