Re: Missing CD/DVD Drivers?

Hi

I'm having exactly the same problem with my Asus motherboard (P5W64
Pro) and installing vista 64 bit from a IDE CD/DVD rom drive with no
drivers out on the net (and my sata dvd doesnt even show!)

I've tried the IT8211 Drivers but unfortunately thats not worked

Can someone help? Someone mentioned using a XP cd (-bviously my cd
drive dont work at this point in the install so I need to copy the files
elsewhere.. What files from a XP CD might be useful so I can put them on
a floppy ot usb stick and load them in?

Thanks in advance
Dom

Well... I've been trying to modidy the IT8211 -iteatapi.inf- file in the
win64 folder to see if I can force it to think its a vista driver.

So far I've changed
[Version]
Signature="$Windows NT$"

to [Version]
Signature="$CHICAGO$"

This makes the inf file load ok but nothing appears int he box to
select. I resume I need to add/modify a

%ITE.DeviceDesc0% = iteatapi, PCI\VEN_1283&DEV_8212&SUBSYS_2A1D103C ;
ASUS OEM

line for it to pick it up. Anyone know how I get this line right?

Or.. did peoplke just untick the "onyl use compatible drivers blah
blah" tickbox and select one that appears?

Or am I using a driver file set thats total;ly out of date
(8211Drv_095003-01.exe or DriverVer=12/14/2005,1.3.2.8 in the INF
file...)

Thanks in advance,
Dom
