    Hi im trying to upgrade my windows 7 but but get this message how can i fix it?

    Upgrading Windows will affect the following devices and/or programs:

    These devices might not work properly after the upgrade. Before upgrading, we recommend updating the drivers for these devices. Cancel the upgrade, open Control Panel and search for "update device drivers", or go to the device manufacturer's website to search for updated drivers.

    Wow, that means IDE controller which it prompted for was in the installer.

    Wonder why it didn't load it during in-place.

    Any ideas?
