Ned help installing drivers

ElGriton · May 29, 2005

I have a Lanparty UT nf3 gb with a 3200+ w/d sata 10,000 rpm drive.
After installing win xp pro it keeps trying to install the "NVIDIA nForce3 250 Parallel ATA Controller (v2.6)" then fails.

never ever install a nforce? IDE driver. I had the exact same problem with my nforce2 board and this driver. Just don't install it when installing windows and keep the MS IDE driver.

It doesn't give me that option. Is there a way to change?

i came across this problem with a SATA hdd, usually it happens during the utilities installation of the motherboard.

and Elgriton, we have similar locations.... lol.

Have you already tried installing the nVidia Unified Driver package v5.10?

After it is botched this way, I never found a way to rectify it. You can ignore it however, then it will continue to use the MS IDE driver and not bother you anymore. Busmaster DMA, etc will still work.

In the first picture why are there two of all the controllers?

You could try and remove all those drivers, including removing the files (.sys and .inf) on disk if possible, then try and reinstall.

Good luck
