    Windows Vista Installation Problem (sata drivers)
    « on: April 05, 2009, 03:53:01 AM »
    Hi, when i try to install Windows Vista 64, i get the same problem that many other have, that i cant find anny drives to install on, and i have understood that i need sata drivers.

    But i cant find anny drivers, i have a Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe Motherboard.
    and was wondering if anny one knows where to get sata drivers ?

    Thanks

          You have enabled SATA in the BIOS?

              Try flashing your  BIOS, reset your  CMOS by pulling the battery and bridging the reset jumper. Had this happen before on other boards, procedure to flash the BIOS.
