How about one pack WHQL-only, one pack "3rd-party" (& one 'BASE' to rule them all!)  This could enhance source-security.

  I think a '3rd-party' identifier in the filename could be helpful.  ie: 3P_Graphics_D_wnt5-x86_1111.7z

About the lack of driver signing in legacy AMD drivers:  Contact the new CEO, Rory Read; just be tactful & patient.  He may have the clout to appease owners of legacy hardware.  I can 'see' the headlines already "AMD extends support for Windows 8 to legacy hardware owners",  "AMD says 'buy a new one, when YOU are ready', with enhanced trade-in offers included in advertising with new drivers".  What a contrast this would be to nV & Chipzilla!

I surely hope that wasn't a "Speed" reference, Keanu! lol

I like the new look, yet I find myself missing the "Show All Posts Since Last Visit" feature of the old site.

PS:  does it do any good to "Report" spam, or does it simply compound it for an 'op?

I have some HWID's to share from a Gigabyte GA-7N400Pro2 v2 mobo:

PCI\VEN_1283&DEV_8212&SUBSYS_00011283&REV_11\4&3B1D9AB8&0&6040
    Name: Mass Storage Controller
    Hardware ID's:

        PCI\VEN_1283&DEV_8212&SUBSYS_00011283
        PCI\VEN_1283&DEV_8212&CC_018000
        PCI\VEN_1283&DEV_8212&CC_0180
    Compatible ID's:
        PCI\VEN_1283&DEV_8212&REV_11
        PCI\VEN_1283&DEV_8212
        PCI\VEN_1283&CC_018000

        PCI\VEN_1283
        PCI\CC_018000
        PCI\CC_0180

I have altered my driver by replacing all HWID's with the following lines in the hopes of avoiding conflicts with the current RAID driver, here --> http://www.mediafire.com/file/23w84ugyq … 1.3.4.3.7z  Vista 'sees' the driver (inf) as unsigned, yet the iteatapi.sys is 'seen' as WHQL.

%ITE.DeviceDesc0% = iteatapi, PCI\VEN_1283&DEV_8212&CC_0180

(and altered my mobo's BIOS; working in Vista32 w PCIcard ATAPI BIOS v1.7.1.64 & mobo BIOS v1.41 - have found v1.71 from GA-K8NS Pro (rev. 1.x))
I wonder if my txtsetup.oem can be improved.

Can i be more specific about the HWID for the 8212's?

here's some more PATA info... :D

From the iTE IT8211F datasheet here --> http://www.ite.com.tw/en/Services/download.ashx?file=12
1. Features

I wonder if iTE's RAID driver had similar issues to Creative's infamous first few (dozen) attempts at Vista drivers for the Live!/Audigy/etc. series. (a-la Driver Model incompatibilities)  Why do i suspect major performance differences between XP & Vista RAID drivers, too?
:o

https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/IT8212 wrote:

Depending on the implemented BIOS and configuration the IT8212F functions in either a RAID or an ATAPI mode, supporting up to four devices using dual channels. The raid mode only supports IDE Hard Disk Drives an includes RAID 0, RAID 1, Raid 0+1 and JBOD, along with a "normal" mode that essentially acts as a standard Hard Disk controller. Optical disk drives such as CDROM and DVD drives are supported by the ATAPI mode, which also supports Hard Disk Drives at the loss of all RAID functions. RAID functions are implemented by an embedded microprocessor, thus is not a so called "Soft raid" controller.

As the RAID mode supports HDD's only, perhaps this should be listed as a 'known issue'(for Vista-7 & XP packs), if necessary (to inhibit self-inflicted premature male-pattern baldness?).:D

The IT8212 is unique among cheapo "RAID" chipsets in that it is really an honest-to-god hardware RAID controller. It does real hardware acceleration of striping and mirroring operations. (very important for mirroring, as you only need to send the data to the card once, and the card takes care of duplicating it -- in software raid-1 you have to send the data twice). There's no RAID-5 parity acceleration, but that would be impossible to do in a controller this cheap. smile

mr_smartepants can i be more specific so as to avoid using the same HWID's as the raid drivers? hmm

If anyone decides to report on these drivers, please quote ATAPI or RAID BIOS version; thanks ahead of time. big_smile

Surely (DriverVer=05/22/2007,1.3.3.0) would prove an upgrade for your IT8211, & provide a set of Vista-WHQL'ed (inf at least) drivers for IT8211 without IT8212 references as driver above(DriverVer=12/14/2005,1.3.2.8).  ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/driver/ATA/ITE … .3.3.0.zip cool cool

In a historic sense, the field is weakening globally, although it should strengthen over the next couple of years, in reaction to the upcoming Solar Maximum. http://wdc.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp/igrf/anime/index.html     http://www.megakastro.gr/weather_agro/s … lation.htm

Magnetic North is above 85°N latitude.  http://wdc.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp/poles/figs/pole_ns.gif
  Strangely, the Southern magnetic pole is still north of 65°S latitude. http://wdc.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp/poles/figs/pole_ss.gif
The magnetic lines of force move outward from magnetic south.  https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ … etic_field  One would suspect that a large-enough antenna may collect enough current (through induction) for LED lighting???.  NASA tried a tether in the mid-nineties (AFIR) on a Shuttle mission, to investigate power generation, yet the tether was lost when the cable attaching it burnt-through.

The increase in Exo-Solar Cosmic Rays passing through our weakening magnetic field could eventually....have an influence on our weather due to increased cloud formation.

I'm more concerned about people like this.  http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/TopStories/20 … al-110803/
Seriously, do NOT try this at home, kids! lol

Preparing for the upcoming solar maximum could start with the realization that "Passive Surge-Protection" devices (such as power-bars) have a limited life-span & probably should be replaced at least once every 11 years (now would be a good time).
"Active Surge-Suppression" should protect the most sensitive systems, yet many include "Passive" components as well.  Bear in mind that these components wreak havoc with PowerLine Networking Devices (connect direct-to-wall).  Mind-you, PL networks turn Loomex wire in a household into a HF antenna!  Long live CAT6 cabling!

found the driver for Atheros AR701x/AR9271 USB WiFi adapters from ECS here (win-all with utility) --> http://download.ecsusa.com/dlfileecs/dr … theros.zip big_smile
(XP v7.7.0.102; Vista v8.8.0.84; w7 v2.0.0.62) once again, there are no certificates included in any of the .sys files; the .Inf's are WHQL.  The utility is from mid-2009.

edit: w7 v9.2.0.19 referenced elsewhere is newer, yet contains fewer HWID's

%ATHER.DeviceDesc.9271% = ATHER_DEV_9271_SS.ndi,  USB\VID_0CF3&PID_9271&REV_0108&SS

what are the odds that your adapter supports SelectiveSuspend, SamLab?

Say, a valid certificate is in the security catalog; does that make a difference?  Otherwise, i have no idea how any of the 64bit drivers could work without Driver Signature Enforcement disabled.

This generic utility is recent (Mar 2011) & for XP (ACU installed from XpUtl; vista is referenced internally, so possibly vista-7 - AWiCDiag) --> http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tools/up … 001940.zip

spambots from Antarctica now??  ISP rates would be prohibitive!  Same with heat.  Solar's great, less than half of the year.  Wind power could be a hit.  Hydroelectric; not so much.  Kitchen gardens popular, perhaps.  Kitchen garden successfully grown with high-efficiency LED's - a goal?

by any chance would you happen to have a "Xbox360 Wireless N Networking Adapter [Atheros AR7010]" with the black plastic casing (or a Sony UWA-BR100, Panasonic N5HBZ0000055, Ubiquiti WiFiStation) kicking around?  any of these drivers could be a candidate for it. (same underlying chip)

edit:  can anyone confirm the WHQL status of the athuw.sys included with any AR701x/AR9271 driver by actually looking at the file-name in Device Manager?

say, that driver is "DriverVer=09/30/2009,7.7.0.65"
  have you tried "DriverVer=09/30/2010,7.7.0.98" avail here --> http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic. … 681#p44681 hmm  edit: updated link

Oh Snap!
nevermind; how 'bout "DriverVer=07/28/2011,7.7.0.102" instead! cool cool

If it works for you, SamLab, perhaps this driver could serve as a candidate to replace the 'generic' Atheros AR701x & AR9271 drivers. big_smile
I could be wrong; this could be a HW-specific driver.

edit: unlike the posted driver(v7.7.0.65 inf, v7.7.0.75 sys), this one has valid WHQL SHA1 sigs & it has perhaps an über util with it?
hold up, the .sys file has an invalid sig(edit: like other .sys for this HW, the file has no Certificate Table in the Data Directories), so it shouldn't pass WHQL.  The inf file is valid.

the util is from 2009, v4.32.124; perhaps not so über, after all.  At least it should prove an upgrade for your HW, SamLab.
updated util here --> http://ftp.dlink.ru/pub/Wireless/DWA-126/Drivers/1.01/

I would suspect that one of the "Atheros Client" utilities should function with products based on the underlying chip.

The final spike in nV's mid to low-end production may come from ARM itself.  http://www.tomshardware.com/news/ARM-Mi … 13952.html
Here's hoping that nV can fan-dangle together a CUDA hybrid of this "Desktop-class" IP (with 'spatterings' of Tesla) for desktop/mobile before a competitor swoops in and consumes their 'bottom line'!
It is a simple dream i have; quad-SLI on a 300W PS! lol

We Could Run Out of Hard Drives Soon, Says Analyst

As new HDD prices have more than tripled on this 'wet coast', it would seem that procedures to recycle them may reflect the true meaning of the word 'recycle'.
  Alternative storage methods may gain popularity as well.  Flash memory may prove to hold bitter disappointments to consumers of low-longevity units, due to controller/flash issues.
Ironic that HDD production in Thailand gets literally washed away (my humble respect to victims of flooding) soon after rare-earth metal exports are restricted.

I hear a rumour that the beta may be released in Jan 2k12.

These are likely already on mr_smartepants's radar as the last update to DP_WiFi was in April 2011; just linking as a courtesy.

UEFI secure boot details are muddied here:

So Windows 8 "secure boot" is the same as "trusted boot" and for it to work TPM is a requirement.

Reading the "trusted boot" paper makes it clear that trusted boot requires a TPM. Reading the paper also makes it clear that it can work with conventional BIOS, as well as UEFI.
"Secure boot", on the other hand, is a feature of UEFI and, as we know, does not require a TPM. Without a TPM it can't possibly be the same as trusted boot, how is that not obvious?
The essential difference is that secure boot runs as part of the UEFI boot process, and trusted boot as part of the OS boot process.

HP laptops seems to be dropping like flies in a RAID factory!  Consumer goods carrying a one-year warranty generally use some components that are engineered to last a maximum of 1.25 to 1.5 years!
I've often wondered why a Value-Added Reseller would whitelist WiFi modules, too.

i see that your system is UEFI-based.  any TPM?  any install experiences to share?  i like the UEFI diagnostic USB key reference.
