DL145 G3 SAS Controller Blue Screen Freeze

[John Desvernine]

Getting BSOD when using the HP 4/8 Internal Port SAS HBA drivers on my DL145 G3 when installing Win 2003 64 bit. I have used every driver on the fricken hp website and still the bluescreen lock up.

I figured out a fix for anyone in a similar predicament. Basically, the currently shipping DL145 G3 use LSI MPT Fusion 1068 chipset with a revision of (B0). I think the HP drivers on CD and websites are for revision A0. Use the drivers off the LSI site instead. http://www.lsi.com/cm/License.do?url=http://www.lsi.com/files/support/ssp/whql%20drivers/SAS3442X_2003IA64_IE_WHQL_MID1216130.ZIP&prodName=LSISAS1068&subType=Driver&locale=EN
