Dear Fernando,

Hope you are fine. My English is little bit rusty. So excuse. I read several threads here, but none of these working for me. I need to install Windows 2003 Enterprise 32 bit on Dell Optiplex 3046. I’ve tried to install clean Win 2003. But failed.

Then Win2003 with your driver “Universal 32bit Intel RST AHCI+RAID driver v11.2.0.1006 mod+signed by Fernando” , with F5+F7 when installing. My BIOS has only one mode-AHCI. Nothing works. I get a BSOD STOP error. Code: 0x0000007B.

My Hardware ID: Win7 64 bit.

AHCI Mode ..... Device Manager ... IDE / ATA Controller Sections ..
Standard AHCI 1.0 controller with Serial ATA ... HW ID= PCI\VEN8086&DEV_A102&SUBSYS_079B1028&REV_31

Also attaching few screenshots...

Can you please help me to make the installation successful??? Thanks in advance.

@Fernando:

Thanks for your kind reply. I followed all points that you stated in previous post. Now, I am getting the Windows 2003 installation Page, where it says to press Enter to continue windows installation.

But now, I think I have to integrate USB 3.0 drivers also with Windows 2k3 CD as I have no PS/2 port in my machine. And my USB kb/mouse is not working in this stage. I looked the following page but found no USB 3.0 driver mod for WinXP/Win2k3.

USB 3.0/3.1 Drivers (original and modded)

Now please help me. I am attaching screenshots of my USB drivers.

Thanks in advance.

you have any idea in this matter bro??? I need to install Win2k3 in a Dell Optiplex 3046 machine. But during installation process, USB kb and mouse not working as Win2k3 CD has no driver for USB 3.0. What to do now??? I have few screenshots in my previous post.

Waiting for your kind reply... Thanks in advance...

If you've read my guides the answer is there. But since you have to translate I will keep it short and simple.

Intel USB 3.0 is not supported except with driver for W7+.

I haven't tried Win2K3 installation tests so I can only guess if it is similar to XP then these are your options:

Need a PS/2 Keyboard Port to connect a PS/2 Keyboard. USB devices will not work after desktop reboot.

Maybe Unattended Installation modifying SETUP.SIF so no need to use Keyboard or Mouse to finish installation. I haven't tried this but you will still get stuck at desktop. Maybe add USB PCIe card and slipstream the USB drivers to ISO so it auto detects and installs giving you access.

Get a new motherboard with PS/2 Port - save you a lot of headache.

Use an older Z77 or prior generation Intel chipset motherboard.

I suggest if you want to learn more you have to read or translate all my guides. But the above is the simplest way to help.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I integrated USB 3.0 driver with Win7 Pro CD previously. But now the problem is I am not getting USB 3.0 driver for Windows XP or Win2k3... whatever let me try... again thanks...

I looked up your system specs G4400T is Skylake which is 100 Series so your options are limited to what I said earlier. If you are using the integrated Intel USB 3.0 controller you cannot use W7 USB driver on Win2K3. I don't think it will work and it will give some error code that it cannot start the device. If you need USB 3.0 for W2K3 you need to find the driver for it if it exists or create a driver which unless you've spent time programming or work for Intel it will be very difficult to accomplish without some sort of reverse engineering background. Just buy a USB PCIe card with confirmed Win2K3 driver support on their website to download before ordering it.

Why do you need to use Win2K3?

Dear Fernando,
my computer is lenovo m8600t n0000,mainboard is Q170 and cpu is 6700 .I am going to install xp-32.Yesterday evening I downloaded "Universal 32bit Intel RST textmode driver v11.2.0.1006 mod+signed by Fernando",Integrate Drivers" and "Create Bootable CD with the nLite,but failed,what shall I do?

thanks!

thank for your reply!Because my English is very poor,I had to read over the "[Guide] Integration of Intels AHCI/RAID drivers into a Windows XP/W2k3/W2k CD" many times.At first,
I download the the clean xp-32 and unzip to root directory of hard disk,Then unzip the "Universal 32bit Intel RST textmode driver v11.2.0.1006 mod+signed by Fernando"to hard disk.At last, Integrated It into a Windows XP and Create Bootable CD.I wonder it can not use the intel Q170 mainboard?

I´m searching for driver PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_22A3&SUBSYS_10C01043&REV_35 Windows Xp. Is there any way to install xp in this machine?

Thank you so much for making this!
I'm happy to announce that I was able to successfully install Windows XP Professional on this using your modded driver.
