I looked in the thread that you kindly linked, but that seems to be for AMI BIOSes, rather than Pheonix?

---

Yes. If the BIOS is an old non-UEFi Phoenix one, you should look into the first post of >this< thread.

Hi @Fernando! How are you?
I am trying to add the driver AHCI Controller DEV_9D03 on my Samsung Expert X51 notebook - Model: Samsung NP500R5L-YD2BR -
https://www.samsung.com/br/support/model/NP500R5L-YD2BR/
but every time Windows 7 x64 informs that the device was not found, I will add photos and the files that I have downloaded to the installation and I will also add my backup of Windows 10, if you can help me I will be very grateful since already.

Hi Frenado will you mod the latest 17.5.1.1021
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/en-us/d...-?product=55005

I see.Well the worst case I have been face recently..
the RST V17 cause Two windows 10 Insider build 18936 and 18941 cannot be install properly due to the bugs of the driver....
I have to revert as RST 14.X family to solve it...

Fernando,
I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to ask but I really do need some help and as far as I can tell, you are "the man" that has the knowledge!
I have an ASUS motherboard, P8H61-M LE/USB3. I have recently installed a Samsung SSD and would like advice on AHCI drivers.
The native driver, on the ASUS website, is v10.1.0.1008.
I have spent hours trying to understand how to identify the string that tells me what driver to search for.
I HAVE found your driver, v12.9.4.1000 but I'm unsure if it is correct.
I thank you so much for any help.
Mike

Good afternoon @Fernando, how are you?
you know AHCI, do you have any answers for my case? For now I am using Windows 10 Pro on my system, I look forward to installing Windows 7 x64, thank you so much for everything you have already done in the forum.

Hello Dieter, thank you for the warm welcome.
I am currently using Windows 7 but perhaps Windows 10 would be more appropriate now that support for Win 7 is drawing to a close.
Would v13.2.8.1002 also be OK for Windows 7?
I understand drivers in general, but I can't quite understand how to get the relevant information, from the hardware, so I can search for new drivers that are NOT on Windows Update.
For example, this line is in the iaAHCI setup information for the driver I have:
%PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C02&CC_0106.DeviceDesc% = iaStor_Install, PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C02&CC_0106
I think the 8086 indicates INTEL but 1C02 & 0106 I don't understand. This is what I am trying to learn.
Your assistance is very gratefully received.
Very best regards,
Mike

Thank you.
The explanation of the meaning of the string numbers is brilliant, thank you.
I did, as per our original discussion, download v13.2.8.1002 but the "Fernando" one is not digtally signed, I suppose, and the "pure" one is an .exe file which failed to install.
Despite my advancing age (67) I'm desperate to learn.
To be honest, the original driver is working just fine. Makes me wonder why we are always looking to update, perhaps unnecessarily.
Thanks again, it's late; time for bed.
Very best regards,
Mike

Sorry, just realised the MS in-box driver you suggested was not for me!!
Mike

I should have read the articles more thoroughly to get to grips with how it's done.
So, I have now downloaded the v13.2.8.1002 and installed the certificate; thanks for the heads-up!
Now, ONE final question.
I see the version numbers go all the way up to v17. I assume that is too up-to-date for my Series 6 chipset, but how can I find out the highest version that is compatible with my motherboard?
Don't forget, I'm relatively new to this and this is the deepest I have delved into the subject of AHCI.
Thank you again so much for your invaluable help.
Best regards,
Mike
