Wondering if a SATA card (VIA VT6421A) works with W7x64
Hey gang. I wondered if anyone had any experience with Windows 7's compatibility with the SATA chipset "VIA VT6421A"? My motherboard's manufacturer has no intention of Windows 7 (64bit) compatibility for the SATA interface (Gigabyte GA-K8NS-939). My main data drive is a 500gb SATA and is completely unreachable in W7x64. I decided to turn to Ebay to see what there is in terms of SATA PCI cards and it looks like the VAST majority of them are all of the VIA VT6421A chipset. However I haven't been able to find anything that says 'yay' or 'nay' in terms of if they actually work with Windows 7(x64).
Has anyone here had experience with this?
