Re: Storage Controller Problem
Hello Chuck
Many thanks for your reply. I finally sorted the problem by doing a clean
Vista reinstall.
The remarked IDE Controller was Marvell Storage Virtual Device and even
though I had the drivers
it just wouldn't install. Upon rebuild it installed fine. Not sure why it
happened on the first build,
I must have done something wrong. However having searched on the net I came
accross a lot of
messages from people complaining about Marvell drivers and how they
sometimes just won't install.
Regards
Joaquin
