I thought the all RST drivers are already RST(e) from v11.5 and above?

That means that 12.9.4.1000 is definitely an RST (e) with the two drivers inside that package, correct?

---

Although the newest Intel RST(e) drivers v13.6.0.1002 have been designed by Intel just for Intel 8- or 9-Series Chipset systems, I decided to customize them to make them usable with as many Intel chipsets as possible.

Update of the Start Post:
Changelog:

• new: "32/64bit Intel RST(e) AHCI & RAID drivers v13.6.0.1002 mod by Fernando" (with support of all Intel AHCI/RAID systems from ICH7R/M up)
• new: "Universal 32/64bit Intel RST Software v13.6.0.1002" (extracted untouched original RST Software)

1. Users, who want to manually install any modified driver from within the Device Manager, have to use the "Have Disk" button! Otherwise they will get the message, that the latest/best driver has already been installed.
2. Win8/Win8.1 users have to disable the driver integrity check before trying to install any driver, which is not digitally signed or modified. The procedure how to do it is layed down at the bottom chapter of the start post.

Driver Signature Enforcement is a requirement at x64 Windows operating systems. It's not just for Windows 8.x. I remember having to do the exact same thing for Windows 7 or Vista.

Also a quick way to trigger Recovery at Windows 8.x is by pressing Shift + Restart.

I didn't know that. Thanks for this tip, which makes it much easier to get the Win8/10 "Driver Signature Enforcement" disabled.

I guess it depends on the modification. As far as gpu drivers are concerned, I remember that it was important to disable signature enforcement on x64 Windows.

Yes, you also bypass the Metro UI Settings app completely that way. Indeed a lot faster.

Now, on my GB MB, The device manager shows
Intel(R) ICH10 Family 2 port Serial ATA Storage Controller 2 -3A26
Intel(R) ICH10 Family 4 port Serial ATA Storage Controller 1 -3A20
which are not on your modded dev lists as far as I can see.

I just need AHCI functionality, not blazing speed, and no RAID.

---

Ok, what you need to do is to set the Intel SATA Controller to "AHCI" within the BIOS and to do a fresh install of Windows XP with an integrated suitable Intel AHCI driver.

Do you think your Universal 32bit Intel MSM AHCI & RAID driver v8.9.8.1005 mod by Fernando would work with another two devices added to the .infs?

---

There is no need to add any HardwareIDs to the related .INF and .OEM files, because the Intel SATA AHCI Controller of your mainboard will be supported by my "universally modded" Intel textmode drivers, provided that

• a) you have highlighted the correct Intel SATA AHCI Controller names during the driver integration procedure (depending on the SATA port you are using it is either the "Intel(R) ICH10 SATA AHCI Controller DEV_3A03" or "Intel(R) ICH10 SATA AHCI Controller DEV_3A23", if you are not sure, you should highlight them both) and
• b) the Intel SATA Controller has been set to "AHCI" before you start with the XP installation.

I wonder about the 2-port part 3A26 especially.

---

These names were given by the installed Intel Chipset Device Software (= *INF Update Utility*). Your mainboard obviously has at least 6 Intel SATA ports, which are managed by 2 slightly different Intel SATA Controllers (one for 2 SATA ports and the other for 4 SATA ports).

My system is a Dell Precision T7500, the chipset is Intel 5520 (Xeon) and I'm running Win 7 X64.

When I found this topic I got a bit exited with the possibility of using Intel's Rapid Storage Technology caching option but I have tried all the drivers/apps you created and I could not activate the feature.

---

You obviously are confusing the Intel Rapid Storage Technology with the Intel Smart Response Technology. The original/modded Intel RST drivers just support Intel SATA AHCI and RAID Controllers, but have nothing to do with an extra data caching feature.
