    How to install download that went to UserName/AppData/Local/Temp


    I've just clean installed Win7x64. The Win7 Update Advisor listed Intel Matrix Storage Console as a program that would need updating after the install. I downloaded f6flpy-x64.zip from the Intel website and it went to the Temp folder. I have no idea what to do with it or how to get it installed. There are 6 listings in the download but none are .exe files.
    iaahcic - Security Catalog 6KB (Compressed size)
    iaAHCIC - Setup Information 3KB
    iaStorA.sys - System file 526KB
    iastorac - Security Catalog 6KB
    iaStorAC - Setup information 3KB
    iaStorF.sys - System file 17KB
    I clicked on one of the "Setup Information" listings, but don't understand any of it.
    I'm an inexperienced user so please keep it basic. Thanks.

    I guess you downloaded the wrong driver? The name of the file suggests it is a floppy driver, which in turn lead me to believe this is a pre-install driver (which you load during Windows installation)? F6 in the name also augments my belief.

    You downloaded a driver that is meant to be placed on a floppy disk and during Windows install you can press F6 to install the driver from the floppy disk.

    I think you might have better luck using this Intel utility: Intel® Driver Update Utility

    It's Intel Rapid Storage Technology. Unless you're running a RAID setup don't bother with it.

    I don't know whether I'm running a RAID setup or not. I'm using a dual boot setup with Vista on the 2nd internal hard drive and Win7 on the main internal hard drive. When I go to Boot setup, it identifies the Vista drive as RAID 1 and the Win7 drive as RAID 0, so I assume I am running a RAID setup.
    Anyway, I'm going to run the Intel Driver Update Utility and see what happens.
    Thanks for your input.

    Just some information:

    For RAID to happen you need (at least) 2 drives (ideally same make/model, smallest drive dictates RAID capacity) set up to work together. RAID0 being a striped set, RAID1 being a mirrored set.

    I doubt you have such a RAID setup with 2 independent drives. I believe it is how your BIOS is reporting the drives (RAID0=1st drive on the RAID controller, RAID1=2nd drive etc) not necessarily showing the RAID configuration.

    You can set the SATA ports to RAID mode but that doesn't mean they are set as RAID. I guess most of us use SATA AHCI mode, however some boards don't have that option and RAID is a subset of AHCI and have the same functionality.

    I downloaded and ran the Intel Driver Update Utility and it said I needed no drivers so guess I'm good. Thanks all.
