SATA drivers for Windows Server 2003


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi! All,

I have a situation here. I wanted to install the Windows Server 2003

Enterprise edition on a DELL Optiplex 755 with an 80 GB SATA drive.

 

A couple of minutes into the installation I get the blue screen "

0X0000007B(0XF789E63C,0XC0000034,0X00000000,0X00000000) asking me to

"chkdsk" the hard drive.

 

After searching the Internet I get to know that Win Server 2003 doesnt

provide the SATA drivers. I checked with DELL and they say they cannot help

as I am changing the default O.S of Optiplex.

 

the Intel chipset is "Intel NH82801 I0" and I dont find the chipset on the

Intel website. Nor could I find the drivers elsewhere.

 

I am missing something here - surely I dont know how to go about it the

right way.

 

Can anybody guide me on how to go about it. Plus I dont have a floppy

drive - can I use an external USB floppy drive to install the drivers if I

find them?

 

Pl advice.

Thank you

Regards

Ven

Hi! SF,

Thank you for the reply - but there are no drivers for Windows server 2003.

From the drop down it only shows for vista and xp.

 

Did you notice?

 

Thank you

Re: SATA drivers for Windows Server 2003

 

Most XP drivers will work in Server 2003 since they use a common code

base. (Similarly most Vista drivers work on Server 2008). Have you tried the

XP driver?

There won't be, since they probably won't support a server OS on an

Optiplex.... Try the XP drivers since 2003 is XP based (BTW, 2008 is

Vista based).....

Re: SATA drivers for Windows Server 2003

 

Hi! Everybody,

Yes I downlaoded the XP drivers and since I dont have a floppy drive for my

machine and I dont have an external usb floppy drive - I was wondering on

including the SATA drivers onto the Windows Server 2003 CD - so it will take

the drivers directly during the installation. I found a procedure on the

internet for the WinXP installation

http://forums.hexus.net/operating-systems-applications/20748-windows-xp-installing-sata-_without_-floppy-disk.html

 

trying to do the same for the Win 2003.

 

Thank you for all the help and clarifications, appreciate it.

Will report back with the outcome.

 

Stay in touch,

 

Regards

Harry

Re: SATA drivers for Windows Server 2003

 

 

Don't know if anyone is still having this problem but I found

functioning drivers for most of the OS's at:

 

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=2101

 

You just select the OS and then select the second download option which

is the floppy based files needed for the OS to load. One additional

note that took a bit to find. Select "ICH9R/DO/DH SATA AHCI Controller"

from the list of options. That is the one that works for the Optiplex

755.

 

Hope this helps someone.

 

Mike

SATA drivers for Windows Server 2003

 

You can also goto the BIOS on the Optiplex 755 and change the RAID setting for the SATA drive from AHCI/AutoDetect to ATA/AutoDetect. I did this and this stopped the blue screen of death (BSOD) I kept encountering when trying to install Windows 2003 OS versus Vista/Windows 2008. I hope this helps.
