How did you set the SATA mode in BIOS? If it's Enhanced mode, no driver is needed. If it's AHCI or software RAID mode, yes driver is needed:

AHCI: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=16032 http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=16032

Software RAID (ESRT2): http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=18265 http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=18265

Unfortunately interactive support for this product has ended: http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/sb/CS-033802.htm Server Products — End of interactive support announcement

You may refer to the step-by-step demo on ESRT2:

You may also try different installation media, like a USB DVD-ROM or create a USB key installation drive.

this driver does not work my bios is set to enhanced mode in sata with a ocz vertex 4 and windows server 2008 .. any ideas to diffrent drivers to load on the windows install

[idata]

the driver loads it up and does its thing and then it says not compatable this is directly connected to the motherboard with sata cable no raid card

[Edward_Z_Intel]

No this is for AHCI only. No additional driver is needed for enhanced mode. What kind of installation media are you using?

[idata]

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=11093 Download Windows Server 2008 R2 Evaluation (180 days) from Official Microsoft Download Center

that is what im trying to install ..

i use the achi driver u provided and it says not compatible

[idata]

Here is a picture of the error this is with the windows server 2008r2 and even with standard windows server 2008 does the same thing

click the link that is a screenshot of the error

[Edward_Z_Intel]

Again no driver is needed when SATA mode is enhanced, and AHCI driver doesn't work with that. Maybe you can try to change SATA mode to AHCI and load the AHCI driver.

And what kind of DVD-ROM are you using?

[idata]

i have the iso on usb

[idata]

This is the setting it is on right now http://i.imgur.com/ljMxL.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ljMxL.jpg and with this it wants drivers still with windows server 2008 what should i change if anything ?

[Edward_Z_Intel]

So you transferred the ISO image to the USB key and boot from USB am I correct? Can you post a screenshot when it says driver is needed?

[Edward_Z_Intel]

Is AHCI mode enabled or disabled? I can't see it in your picture.

[idata]

in the picture it was on and then i just turned it off and it didnt work

[idata]

check your private messages please i wrote u a message

[idata]

is there any other driver to try or any other ideas of why its not working

[Edward_Z_Intel]

That's what I'm trying to figure out - how did you use that ISO image on your USB key?

IIt's called YUMI multboot
