I have an I5 Ivy-Bridge (B75 chipset) system. Windows 10 is up and running (fresh install) and I've been able to load all but the correct SATA drivers - still using the 'Standard' AHCI SATA driver that windows installed.
Asus hasn't released a new Windows 10 SATA driver for their B75 motherboards yet. Hell, they just posted the Intel MEI chipset driver a couple days ago, and I had to get the VIA audio driver directly from the VIA website.
I'm wondering if that standard windows SATA driver is going to cause any performance issues. I noticed all the 8-series and newer chipset based motherboard drivers have been updated on the Asus website (and other manufacture websites too), but the 7-series (Ivy Bridge) based motherboards have very few drivers updated. Are motherboard manufacturers even planing on fully supporting their 7-series motherboards? So far support has been sporadic at best..
Appreciate any feedback..
Thanks for your suggestions.
Yes when I did use the Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility (Chipset INF)
It is what gave me the message I quoted above, when I went into the 'more information' within the data supplied about it.
However I did just now check it again, and this is what it tells me
' Intel® HM65 Express Chipset Family
Current Version Installed 9.2.0.1019 '
Now this is incorrect, unless there is some issue with the driver, or this utility's capability to recognise it; because my Device Manager tells me that I have version 10.0.0.1046 installed!
This utility does NOT specify this driver, but when I go to the downloads section in Intel, this driver is listed within HN65 chipset, as you said Deacon.
Also it says that the version is the same as what I have installed, but in the downloads, the date is 06/04/2011; whereas the date I have for this version is 13/09/2010.
So I believe that that, should not be an issue, but why does the Intel utility not recognise the version I have installed AND tells me on its utility that its version 9.2.0.1019 is current, Of course this may be for the HN65 chipset, but if 1 of the drivers from within that chipset has been updated, woudn't the whole chipset package version be updated too?
Also, when I go to the downloads and put in the EXACT driver name from my device manager, which has no mention of 'WHQI' or 'Raid', it says that the 1 result of my search is
RST_10.0.0.1046_WHQL_RAID_AHCI_drv_and_GUI
There is no mention of these terms in my device manager. I am not looking for a 'Raid' driver, but an ATA/ATAPI one
I am confused; BUT it appears that i have the latest version, and I have more important things to pursue,
like setting up a vm on Win 7. I really wanted to ensure my drivers were up to daate before doing that.
So, if you know anything about doing this with Paragon's P2V option with virtualbox, I would appreciate your knowledge.
Cheers
P.S. Yes with a desktop (previously) I have used the mobo manufaturer for drivers, but I have a Vaio; and Sony is very slow in responding to my emails (twice in the last week).
P.P.S Where do I 'rep' people?

Intel Chipset Sata Ahci Controller Driver Mac
- Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) is an interface specification that allows the storage driver to enable advanced Serial ATA (SATA) features like Native Command Queuing and hot swap. AHCI is built into chipsets with the following controller hubs.
- Dec 28, 2015 - The challenge you are experiencing with the new 170 series (intel 100/C230 chipset) is due to Windows 7 installer iso's not directly supporting.

Intel Sata Ahci Controller Driver
Aug 05, 2014 Hi everyone, I have a question about updating some of my Intel Drivers, like the Intel(R) 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller driver. I've been searching the web and Intel site, but I can't find the drivers for it.
