Topic: Mistake in the driver for the controller Sis 180/181...

The driver was disabled on this package version (DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_7062)! The controller is not recognized in boot process!

I suggest the following modification in the .INF file:

-----------------

[SI-1]
;This driver was disabled. (ms_count = 0)
ms_count             = 1
ms_1_deviceName        = "SiS 181 RAID Controller"
ms_1_tag            = "sisraid1"
ms_1_sysFile        = "sisraid1.sys"
ms_1_hwids            = "PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_0181"
ms_1_isBusExtender    = false
   

[SI-2]
;This driver was disabled. (ms_count = 0)
ms_count             = 1
ms_1_deviceName        = "SiS 180 RAID Controller"
ms_1_tag            = "sisraid"
ms_1_sysFile        = "sisraid.sys"
ms_1_hwids            = "PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_0180"
ms_1_isBusExtender    = false
   

[SI-3]
;This driver is only for SIS 182 RAID Controler!!!!! Update "ms_1_hwids"!!!!
ms_count             = 1
ms_1_deviceName        = "SiS 182 RAID Controller"
ms_1_tag            = "sisraid2"
ms_1_sysFile        = "sisraid2.sys"
ms_1_hwids            = "PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_0182,PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_1182"
ms_1_isBusExtender    = false


[SI-4]
ms_count             = 1
ms_1_deviceName        = "SiS 1184 RAID/AHCI, 1185 AHCI"
ms_1_tag            = "sisraid4"
ms_1_sysFile        = "sisraid4.sys"
ms_1_hwids = "PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_1184,PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_1185"
ms_1_isBusExtender    = false

-----------------

Now the controller SIS 180 and 181 will be recognized!

(SIS's Drivers 180, 181 and 182 are different)

The package "DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_7064" had the same problem.
I suggest the same alteration in the .INF file.

Hi,
Please test this new update asap.
Them drivers do have overlap, which is why the zero was used.

The answer was 42?
Kind regards, Jaak.

Good work!
It seems that the problem disappeared in the version 7.07!
Just check the following code. It can cause some conflict! (line ms_1_hwids)

SI-3]
;This driver is only for SIS 182 RAID Controler!!!!! Please update "ms_1_hwids"!!!!
ms_count             = 1
ms_1_deviceName        = "SiS 182 RAID Controller"
ms_1_tag            = "sisraid2"
ms_1_sysFile        = "sisraid2.sys"
ms_1_hwids            = "PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_0182,PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_1182"
ms_1_isBusExtender    = false

Thanks

Re: Mistake in the driver for the controller Sis 180/181...

Hi,

I still get bsod with 7b after the txt portion of setup is done. What could be the problem? btw the hw is Fujistsu Siemens Esprimo e5600. Looked at the drivers they have and found that it uses SIS965L driver. It is same as sis182? If it is, how can I integrate the driver myself? I'm confused.

Regards, Grub3r

Thanks

the driver's INF does list it, so the INI can have it.
I did redownload the drivers to check that.

I found a nice article on the naming of those HWIDs too.. (should have bookmarked it)
chip 180 can return 181 as HWID depending on the use.. it is same chip.

I do think that sooner or later, conflicts will occur.
time will tell, and this topic can come up when one uses "search"
