    Windows 10 SATA drivers not in .exe format


    Good day to all!

    I would like to install windows 10 on my asus laptop but once I launch the installer the program complains about not finding driver for SATA and no disks are detected. Is there a website where I can download the drivers not in .exe format? I have tried on the Asus website without success.

    Thanks

    :)

    Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers Windows 7 & 8 (With Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive)

    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .

    Windows 10 formatting ?

    Hello all
    I have 3 hard drives
    1 sata 1 tb with Windows 10
    2 older drives that are ide that I use for apps and data and not clutter my main drive.

    I will be replacing the 2 older drives with a 2 tb data drive

    I am thinking of formatting my main drive and starting all new and reloading everything.

    My problem is that I was on Windows 7 pro 64 bit and got Windows 10 pro 64 bit upgrade free.
    So don't have Windows 10 CD or a code for it. So if I format will I be able to get Windows 10 for free
    Or I'll I have to buy the CD.
    Don't really want to spend 200.00 bucks right now.

    Have not formatted in a while what's the best way now a days ?

    Thanks Ruben

    Windows 10 SATA drivers not in .exe format

    Windows 7 Asus M2A-VM Raid Drivers

    I understand what a .exe file does but it needs to load as a driver at the beginning of the windows installation. Windows needs the right driver so that raid 0 will work. I have a diploma in Computer Systems at a recognized college so I am not an idiot. I picked up my hardware manual and I am doing this right. I will describe my steps:

    - 2 x HDD's plugged into slot 1 and 2 (color coded) and unplugged 500gig HDD (slot 3)
    - enter BIOS, set SATA/RAID enabled
    - save and exit BIOS
    - restarts, ctrl-F to enter raid controller
    - create raid array 0 by deleting logical drives and create a new array
    - ctrl-F utility recognizes the raid 0 configuration
    *** These steps above work wonderfully for windows XP and Vista raid 0. I had the right drivers, and it loaded just fine.
    - Enter Windows RC 1 setup
    - new custom install option
    - no HDD's listed at all (because no drivers are loaded for RAID)
    - "Load Driver" button - selected your 32-bit link .exe driver. "driver no found"
    *** I confirmed in windows that the .exe is in the disk and I did a data check after burning it without a problem
    *** The load driver button works wonderfully in XP and Vista for raid 0, that rules out everything but a faulty driver.

    I was kind of disappointed that the .exe did not work. This isn't rocket science. I say it is the driver. Any assistance is appreciated!
