Is Older driver causing BSOD? How to fix?
I keep getting BSODs after a new install of a SIIG PCIe SATA adapter card. It only crashes when I run a CrystalMark or AS-SSD bench on the SSD connected to the new PCIe SATA card ports. I suspect it’s the driver, which is an old Microsoft driver from 2006 that W7 installed.
And when I try to install the latest SIIG driver, W7 ignores and states that the current (older) driver (2006) is the best driver. Can anyone tell from the BSOD screen whether it’s likely the older driver is causing the crash, before having to inspect the mini-dump or run 7Forum Sys Diagnostic?
And secondly, is there a way to force the latest SIIG driver to over-ride W7 and replace the old driver that W7 mistakenly thinks is the best one? Simply pointing the "Driver Updater" to the new driver location doesn’t seem to work.
