Topic: Dell OptiPlex 760 - Intel SATA
I've been trying to update a universal image to work for the 760 for a few weeks now, but it always bluescreens when set to ACHI. I have to set it to ATA to get it to boot. This confirms to me it's stumbling on the ACHI driver.
I suspected the problem was the older MassStorage driver pack, so I tried to update it with the WHQL driver from Intel, but that didn't work. Tried a TEST copy from the awesome people here at DriverPacks and that didn't work. Then most recently used the final 9.01 pack, but now it too didn't work.
I took a peek in the I4 directory and saw that the device ID's for the this hardware are indeed in the pack.
Driver Genius reported the driver as:
********************Intel(R) ICH10D/DO SATA AHCI Controller********************

So it looks like the driver in the pack covers this hardware completely, yet it's still bluescreening on first boot when set to AHCI.
Anyone have any advise for something else to try?
