HP LSI MegaRaid problem (Page 1 of 2)

Welcome to DriverPacks.

I can try figure out why this is happening, but you can help us just as well.
Please provide the link to the driver(s) that work so we can look at them.

I was actually looking at the files today, and think I found what causes some errors.
(I found a few "secondary" system files with same filename across drivers, and am in the process of writing fixes. My reasoning here is that we make The "primary" systemfiles load with unique names (because we must), so why not make the "secondary" files have unique names as well. )

I think you will be able to test a driverpack soon.
Please provide links, and help us help you.

This driver works

(exe file is posible to unpack with 7zip)

Thank you

you cant support the primary hard drive useing a 3rd party DriverPack (Third Party DriverPack)

sorry check the other post ill put up an old one for you... ps its a good idea to keep the old CD/DVD's you create just for this reason. (i am sorry if you dont have older versions cause your a noob!)

edit......

i did some checking and i dont think these drivers were ever in the packs.

Yes you can edit the mass storage pack yourself and some help is available in the docs folder of base.
however this is not easy. since you have added drivers to bartpe yourself in the past this may be within your ability.
Jaak is quite good at adding drivers and usually turns out test packs in no time. so it may just be easier to wait a few hours on him to do it for you/us.

Of course i have old builds, i am not so stupid, but i don't want go back to self made drivers pack; i think thas is spur track.

These drivers were in the pack of course ! (its LSI MegaRaid)

you cant support the primary hard drive useing a 3rd party DriverPack .... why ? what's the difference ? I had the idea to do something like is alredy made with
iastor55.inf (rename the driver and use it for particullar HWID only)

I DID IT

hi
a mass storage driver you put in third party will only get looked at after windows has set up up and reboots into Plug N Play detection phase.

Put in third party, the mass storage driver would not be used for hard disk detection, which is what most people need. (during TXTmode, when windows setup is started.)

I saw other requests about this HP model, and have FOUR mass storage drivers to look at for this thing.
I just got up, and if it looks like I must work around duplicates (Like in, it is no update but uses same filenames), then I think I will make a TINY pack as a temporary solution.

this would be tested by you.
it MUST be tested by you.
If it works, and I have to do extra work to combine it into the released pack, then you MUST test the full pack too.
That's the deal.

G1 servers aren't supported by HP anymore.  I know this from my job last year working on servers.

@ profp62

the megaIDE you link to had no unique HWIDs.
Now, in the event that the INI edit to enable the driver does not work, you can downgrade the files by replacing the content of D\M\L with the drivers from your download.

The files have same name, so the Pack's INI will reference them.
(it wouldn't be the first time a newer driver will not work on older hardware... and we used LSI reference driver.)

OOPS,  don't try it just like that.
the LSI reference driver has MORE hwids..
Your older driver supports only three HWIDS

For old driver, the section would look like this

[L]
ms_count=1
ms_1_deviceName="LSI MegaRAID IDE Controllers"
ms_1_tag="MegaIDE"
ms_1_sysFile="MegaIDE.sys"
ms_1_hwids="PCI\VEN_1095&DEV_0649&SUBSYS_0649101E,PCI\VEN_1095&DEV_0649&SUBSYS_005D0E11,PCI\VEN_1095&DEV_0649&SUBSYS_007E0E11"
ms_1_isBusExtender=false

a testpack is ready
the megaIDE is enabled in this one

-----------------------
in less than 40 minutes you will know...

btw, I once told Ruud a release candidate is a convict... He wants out. LOL.
http://dev link pulled for release

Changes (compared to 712 release)

sILICON 3112
s4b AND s4c were removed. (covered by latest in S4)
S5A and S5B and S5C were removed, (covered by latest in S5)

S4, removed three HWIDs in S4 INI. (and it loads after S5)

SiS
SiS 180/181/182/1182 "unified" driver v2110 is not good for all HWIDs.
re-introduced v1070 and disabled duplicated HWIDs in V2110

FIXES

INI fix
Disabled a few more drivers in INI for windows 2000.
Windows 2000 memory limit for TXTmode requires we disable many, and we had again broken through limit.

INI fixes in [AD2], [AD6],[Ib4],[Ib5] (the new additions required this)

INI fix
[L] LsI SAS, tagname fix

INI fix
[P7] removed a duplicate HWID

Filename fixes;  renamed system file in
[S8A],[SA],[SA2],[SB2],[SB3],[SB4],[SB5],[SC2],[SC3] and [SC4]

Hi

the C2 update is postponed until we fix case sensitivity.
I released without that update.

so in bartpe we need all upper case names and the driver files for this device is hard coded with a case sensitive reference to HPCICCC2.SYS and that reference contains a lower case letter.

that is a show stopper for this driver in PE. Who wishes to break out the hex editor?
