What to do to install a "ACPI Multiprocessor PC" on Computer Entry and get a softly turn off?
Is there a driver to that? I cannot find it.

---

AFAIK the only ACPI driver for Windows XP is the ACPI.SYS.

Currently, I have this driver details for "Standard PC":
Files:
hal.dll
ntkrnlpa.exe
ntoskrnl.exe

---

None of them is a driver (that are .SYS files).

How to force to install ACPI.sys?

---

I dont know - maybe by doing a fresh XP installation?

Although the newest Intel RST(e) drivers v14.5.0.1081 have been designed by Intel just for the newest Intel Chipset systems from 8-Series up, 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 v14.5.0.1081 mod by Fernando" (according to the added HardwareIDs they may support all Intel AHCI/RAID systems from ICH7R/M up)
• new: "Universal 32/64bit Intel RST Software v14.5.0.1081" (extracted untouched original RST Software)

Important:

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 >here<.

Good luck with these freshly customized Intel AHCI/RAID drivers!

Why whit drivers v14.5.0.1081 my internal SATA hard disk is showed up as removable device?

---

You should better ask Intel than me, but this is usually a feature and not a bug.
Please give us some informations:
1. Which chipset has your system?
2. Is the affected HDD your system drive (with the OS on it)?
3. Which OS are you running?
4. Which SATA mode setting (AHCI or RAID) did you choose for the Intel SATA Controller?

@ Tony2k:
Thanks for the quick answers.

1. Asus P6T SE chipset x58;

---

It was not a good idea to install the latest Intel RST driver of the v14 series onto an X58 Chipset system. If you want to know, which Intel AHCI driver I recommend for an Intel ICH10R Southbridge, please look >here<.

2. all my internat hdds;

It is fine, when all internal drives (except the system drive) support the "Hot-Plugging" feature.

it looks like there is some further control on Windows 10 preventing "unsupported" drivers.

---

Have you already tried >this< method?

Zitat von elisw im Beitrag #412

---

with that method is there a difference between the modded and original version of that driver?

---

What does that mean?
There is no difference regarding its functionality between a modded and an original driver. So only the installation procedure is different (it may be more difficult with a modded one).

SerialLong searched for the driver AHCI under it, at last, has approached Drivers v11.2.0.1006 from Fernando. Works well, but through 2-3 reboot of the computer cease to work ALL ports USB. The controller USB - Intel (R) 8 series/C220 series B xHCI HC 8C31.

---

I don't know how to solve the USB problem, because there are no USB 3.0 drivers available, which are usable with Windows XP.
Maybe I should try to modify the Intel USB 3.0 drivers as well?
