Hello Fernando,
Thanks for this explanation for nLite'd XP CDs (different for AHCI and RAID mode)
If I understand you correctly, then I will not be able to create appropriate BartPE CD, since the nature of creating BartPE CD is to add contoller driver
and there is no possibility to specify whether it is for AHCI or for RAID. Is my understanding correct?
Thanks
Regards,
espace

Hello Fernando,
I am not sure how to perform what you suggest for BartPE CD:
You can write the add on "for Intel 8-Series AHCI systems" or "for Intel 8-Series RAID systems" onto the CD.
Untill now I used to add controller drivers into:
C:\pebuilder3110a\drivers\SCSIAdapter
When I start PE Builder when all the rest is where it should be, there is option Plugins, but there it does not exist anything that would 'guide' me how write add on
Sorry for troubling you, but if you would kindly suggest how I should do it, I would be very happy - thanks in advance

espace

Hello Fernando,
Thanks for answering me !

I have previously forgotten to mention, that I was able to boot from my BartPE CD
on a system with ASUS H87M-E motherboard in RAID1 configuration where there was
already installed windows 7 pro, 64 bit, and when I started this BartPE CD
I was able to see one disk since it was in RAID1, and I managed to perform
successfuly Acronis 2014 backup on external USB disk
So my BartPE CD works ok on ASUS H87M-E , but not on ASUS Z87M-PLUS
That is what confuses me

Hello Fernando,

thanks for this update-I am aware that Bart PE is a Live OS, and that is the reason I need it

Regarding my version of Bart PE:
in:
\I386\INF
there is(only) IAAHCI.INF
there is NO iaStor.inf (that is how PEBuilder reads and integrates Intel storage drivers)
in:
\I386\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS
there is:
IASTOR.SYS
in TXTSETUP.SIF which is in:
\I386
there are this lines associated with Intel storage:

And as I have mentioned earlier this BartPE works with H87 system but not with Z87 system, and that is the reason I started this thread

Best regards,

Hello Fernando,
I have mentioned that I have successfully started BartPE on H87 system on which there was installed win7, 64 bit and I managed to make Acronis backup on external usb disk
With the same BartPE I was not able to 'see' HD drives on Z87 system on which there was also installed win7,64 bit
And this is what confuses me
If you wish I make a small BartPE CD so you can check if it works/recognizes HDs on your 64 bit PC and upload it to dropbox and send you a PM with link for download?
(By small I mean to integrate ONLY you modified Intel RST drivers, so the iso file is small)
Reagards,
espace

The answer to your question is yes!
Regards, espace

Both systems were in RAID1 configuration
Both systems are NOT mine - I have made/built them for my friends

Hello Fernando,
Based on your answer is my question: is there a chance/possibility you make newer/updated "Universal modified" Intel RAID driver ?
