This is the driver required for the JMicron storage controller.
question for Ligushka: could you also prove to update the BIOS for BIOSTAR TPower I45 ?

Powerfull,
I am planning to have Vertex 2 as boot drive and 2 other disks as raid 1. I didn't realize that the firmware version of ICH9R may cause troubles. I think I am still using a older version of the BIOS, not sure which one till I am home. The CPU I am using is Q6600. I am kinda hesitate to upgrade to the latest Beta 18 because I have seen some issues with the USB keyboard in bios under AHCI mode for Beta 17 & 18. And the last time I tried to upgrade the BIOS, it scewed the fan control and the temprature warning beep like crazy. I then follow the rule that " if it is fine, why change it " ...
Is there anyway to find out the firmware version of ICH9R for each revision of the BIOS?
If the firmware of ICH9R is too old. I may to the Beta 18 or get some help from Ligushka if it is possible to upgrade the ROMs.
Thanks in advance.
xchric,
If you have an offcial BIOS there is a good chance that your version is 7.5.0.XXXX, you can see it on the top of the screen (second one) during the boot sequence.
You need to update your ICH9R Option Rom to use the vertex 2 (firmware 1.11) as a boot disk. Ligushka is kindly offering his help to get your favorite BIOS with updated option ROMs.
Good luck.

Ligushka has posted a BIOS 18 updated with
Phoenix AHCI Option ROM 01.06.70 (08-13-2008)
Intel RAID/AHCI Option ROM 8.5.0.1030
JMicron JMB363 Option ROM 1.08.01
I saw you propose the latest ICH9R option ROM v8.9.0.1023 in another post.
Is it necessary to update the Intel AHCI to the latest or the 8.5.0.1030 version that Ligushka used is good enough for OCZ vertex 2 and maybe?
Thank you
You are running BIOS 14.
It's not possible to update the OROM to 8.9.0.1023 as I've stated earlier. It throws a "HARDWARE_UNKNOWN" error when trying to use the AHCI/RAID controller mode. I would assume newer OROMs would give the same error, so I settled for 8.5.0.1030. It seems to solve some issues, so unless some more pop up I don't think I'll try to see if any newer version happens to work.

Thanks, Ligushka. I missed your previous post.
Since the 8.5.0.1030 is working well, as confirmed by Powerfull. I will try to update to BIOS 18 with your mod first. If I am not lucky enough with the bios 18, I will fall back to current bios 14 and ask your help to update its ROMs.
Thanks again.
Hi !
I would be happy to have an updated BIOS, but as I use AHCI, I can't use the BIOS 17 or 18 (due to the keyboard problem).
Would you mind to mod a BIOS 16 with those ROMs :
Phoenix AHCI Option ROM 01.06.70
Intel RAID/AHCI Option ROM 8.5.0.1030
JMicron JMB363 Option ROM 1.08.01
That would be very nice !
Regards.
It seems that all the mirrors on the abit site for BIOS 16 are dead. If you can provide a mirror for BIOS 16, I can update the OROMs.
Here it is :

Thank you very much !
And here is your updated BIOS 16: http://www.multiupload.com/7XU5UFHSEA
I have not tested this BIOS on my system, so flash at your own risk.
Thanks !
I'm going to test it right now...
edit : it works ! Great job !

Many thanks Ligushka! Maybe now you wanna start to learn how to do the same stuff on Phoenix BIOSes :P I can surely use one for my BIOSTAR TPower I45
