I have a lsi megaraid 1600 elite scsi card which is not being dected by windows 7 64bit. I have tried several drivers packages for server 2003 and 2008 but it doesnt work. Lsi does not list visa drivers for this card on thier site. Does anyone have any suggestions.
Try running it in compatibility mode for an older version of Windows. See if that helps.
Running what?
IKK, please be sure that your advice is applicable before suggesting it....
@khit.... (nice nic - be careful that it doesn't arouse the admins here....)
If there are no Vista drivers for it, then the likelihood of it being recognized is slim - have you already searched the net for the possibility of using a generic driver to make it work in Vista? If you can find that then those instructions should also work in Win7....
I'd say that was done already....no compatibility for 2008, and 2003 already tried.I have tried several drivers packages for server 2003 and 2008 but it doesnt work. Lsi does not list visa drivers for this card on thier site. Does anyone have any suggestions.
Ah! Your right! I was thinking of WINE's compatibility modes in Linux (It has server compatibility)!
When installing Win 7, click on the "Add Driver" link. It is just like needing the DOS driver for XP. Installing the DOS driver will make the drives visible and get the controller working in Win 7.
