Sil 3112a RAID Controller Driver  

I was recently deploying Windows 7 on an older PC(not too old) and in the upgrade proccess it said setup could not continue and rolled back my upgrade. I suspect that it is because of the raid, because it stopped in the middle of the expanding files stage. The driver version on there is 1.0.0.62, which I believe is the most recent for vista, so can I rule this out as a reason. Theres 50GB free for upgrade.

Thanks.

Have you tried removing the raid card and trying to install win 7 again?

I changed the installation media from dvd to usb and it went. Everything works now except this pc uses a radeon 8500 that I cant find good drivers for.

All problems resolved!

You get video drivers?

yeah I found drivers that someone wrote for it that were XDDM so they worked well. I have a new pc on the way so that means another one will get scrapped soon and Ill through that video card in to get aero going on it and have good drivers.

Well compute on.....
