If you're using the latest Intel Matrix Storage drivers then everything will be perfect. Glad to see Intel got round to fixing this one, even though the problem seems to have been around since March.

Thanks for posting the link to the Intel site for the RAID drivers

I want to use Nlite to make a disk with them installed using XP to save the F6 on install do I just dump the whole unzipped file into drivers?

Thanks.

np, nLite is great, just extract the floppy version of the Intel Matrix Storage 7.8 drivers and use WinImage to extract the Floppy image, or alternatively just double click the image and write it to a floppy.

With nLite, you just need to add a new driver/component, browse to the extracted Intel Matrix Storage driver and specify either iaStor.inf (for RAID) or iaAHCI.inf (for AHCI non-RAID).
Apply the changes and burn away

I did this last night with vLite for my custom ASUS OEM Vista Ultimate and everything worked without a hitch!

That's great never heard of Win Image, I'm currently building it right now, thanks for the help it's saved me a lot of time and I might not have found what you have given me.
