  • 1.  Intel 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller WinPE driver for Ghost

    Posted Nov 08, 2013 11:36 AM

    I am having trouble finding a Vista 32 driver for the Intel 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller for a HP Compaq Elite 8300. I was curious if anyone found a driver that works for WinPE for this device. 

     

    VEN_8086&DEV_1E012

    This is an increasing problem which another Forum member, Terry Bu, has found a workaround for, by using WinPE 3.1.  His article can be found here:

    those 2 articles i wrote follow one another.  The 2nd one is about getting nonvista drivers to not complain in the console using the PE you made in the first article

    Thanks again for the instructions. They are very well written and easy to follow.

    I completed the creation of the WinPE 3 image and replaced the boot.wim file with the original one in my common\winpe3 folder.

     

    I added this line to my drivers.manifest.txt file

      },
        "Intel 7 Series SATA AHCI Controller" = {
            class = storage,
            drivers = ({
                path = "Intel 7 Series SATA AHCI Controller\\iaStor.inf",
                os = ("VISTA")
            } {
                path = "Intel 7 Series SATA AHCI Controller\\iaAHCI.inf",
                os = ("VISTA")
            }),
            internal = 0,
            selected = 0x1
        }
     
    and under the first section with 0x8086 I added the following line to my pci.manifiest.txt file:
     
    0x1e02 = (0x3399103c)
     
    However I am still getting the Drivers could not be found in the PreOS for the following devices error. I am not sure what I missed or why the console won't skip passed this driver check

    the problem is probably in the pci.manifest.txt file.

    did you make a whole new line for the 0x1e02 with a new 0x8086?, or did you put it in something else?  would you mind pasting the whole 0x8086 block here?

    also, please paste the error message (its probably a failure to virtual partition, but it may tell you which file it cant find the entry in)

    I just added it to an existing one:

       }

    } {
        0x8086 = {
            0x2682 = (0xb0031458 0x31fe103c 0x898015d9 0x888015d9 0x848015d9 0x838015d9 0x818015d9 0x808015d9 0x31fe1014 0x2dd1014 0x3321014 0xb0031458 0x31fe103c 0x898015d9 0x888015d9 0x848015d9 0x838015d9 0x818015d9 0x808015d9 0x31fe1014 0x2dd1014 0x3321014),
            0x27c3 = (0x798015d9 0x918015d9 0x778015d9 0x2fc1014 0x2fd1014 0x2fe1014 0x3206103c 0x798015d9 0x918015d9 0x778015d9 0x2fc1014 0x2fd1014 0x2fe1014 0x3206103c)
            0x1e02 = (0x3399103c)
        }
     
    The error is: 
    Detail for: To Virtual Partition
    Drivers could not be found in the PreOS for the following devices:
     
    Manufactorer: "@oem31.inf,%intel%;Intel" Description: "@oem31.inf,%pci\\ven_8086%dev_1e02&cc_0106.devicedesc%;Intel(R) 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller", PCI Vendor 0x8086, PCI Device: 0x1e02, PCI Subsystem: 0x3399103c

    BEFORE the 0x1e02 = (0x3399103c) you need a comma at the end of the line above it.  Notice how before the 0x27c3, the previous line ends in a comma too?  the comma tells it to keep going and add another entry.  try adding the comma so it reads ...

    0x3206103c),

    before going to your added line

    let me know if it works!
