I am a bit confused. I will be adding software to my newly finished Asus P6T Deluxe V2 / i7 920
computer. I will start with XP Pro x86, but will be adding Win 7 x64 in a few months. I just
finished loading the XP Pro and need to add drivers, etc. I downloaded the new bios and chipset
drives from the Asus website. I am good there, but the others are the confusing part. Here is
what I downloaded:
Marvel_V21633_VCT
Marvel_V85633_RIS
Marvel_Yukon_ethernet_V102243
Marvel_88SE6111_SATA_V12057
So, here is my question: which of these do I need? My setup is listed below.
4 SATA HD's
1 SATA CD
1 SATA DVD
I plan to use only one ethernet connection. Which one should I use? I think there are two on
the motherboard. I will also NOT have any raid drives. Also, I believe the chipset drivers
have a SATA driver, so why would I need another one?
Edit: One more question: Since I do not have a floppy drive, which method is best to flash the newest BIOS (there is one available)?
