#1 | unable to install 106x sata controller bsod datum

Wed Oct 21, 2015 9:14 pm

hi im a noob and i tried searching for instructions but i havent found any. i tried to install the lastest 106x sata contoller driver from my motherboard page. i run the installer and get bsod and now unable to boot. the bsod is 0x000007b and its the assahci64.sys driver thats an issue. (i did manage to boot by using a boobtable img and deleting the file but its very unstable)

is the problem that you cant run an installer in os? i have all hds in ahci mode in bios and 2 softare raided and a ssd on the 6gb sata.

to manually install do i just copy the files asstachi64 .dll .sys .inf .cat from a bootable usb into into windows/system32/driver folder and programfiles/assmedia 106x sata/drivers folder?
im confused as to which im supposed to install from as there are 3 different folders stor stachi and scsi.

i have an asus intel p8z77m-pro mb and win7 64bit

You obviously installed a wrong driver. The correct name of the ASMedia 106x SATA AHCI Controller is "asstahci64.sys" and not "assahci64.sys".
By the way: You can find the latest 64bit ASMedia 106x AHCI driver v3.1.7.0 for Win 7-10 x64 within the start post of >this< thread.

According to my experience it is better to install just the pure driver from within the Device Manager instead of running the installer of a complete package.

No, this would be absolutely wrong.
This is what you should do, if you want to replace the currently running driver of any on-board SATA Controller by a newer WHQL certified driver:

Run the Device Manager and search for the related SATA Controller within the "IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers" or "Storage Controllers" section.
Tip: Check the VendorID and the DeviceID of the Controller to be sure, that it is the SATA Controller you are searching for (right-click onto it > "Properties" > "Details" > "Property" > "HardwareIDs").
Right click onto the SATA Controller and choose options "Update Driver Software" > "Browse my Computer" > "Search".
Navigate to the folder, where your desired driver is situated (there must be at least minimum an .INF, a .CAT and a .SYS file).
Click "OK".
The installation will be done automaticly, if the offered driver is compatible and newer.
After the next reboot the new driver will be used by the related SATA Controller.

Good luck!

this one Tip: Check the VendorID and the DeviceID of the Controller to be sure, that it is the SATA Controller you are searching for (right-click onto it > "Properties" > "Details" > "Property" > "HardwareIDs"). didnt say that the id was in the inf file of the installer
