I did an install with the cp008698 driver burned on the installation disk. Worked fine but after the first reboot I got a blue screen; 0x0000007b (0xfffffa60005af9d0,0xffffffffc0000034). Starting in Safe Mode the systm halts on crcdisk.sys.

oh wait a minute

you meant reboot after my first log in in the OS, after that reboot... I have not done that

I just installed OS I logged in and check everything but did not reboot I just turn off machine pressing power button(I was in a hurry).

I will check that tomorrow guys and be back to you

sorry I did not get Appraiser 1's question

Turned controller to IDE and W2K8 starts normally. Proberly in RAID mode W2K8 tries to load the driver aarahci.sys after crcdisk.sys which fails because it is not the proper driver for W2K8 and the result is a BSOD.
In the device list there are still to devices not properly installed; SM Bus Controller and an Unknown device. Any idea which drivers are needed or do we still have to wait fir that as well?

[KarloChacon]

well I think if you use IDE instead of RAID you RAID wont exist....

[KarloChacon]

hey guys

no issues

I reinstalled it again today W2008 x64 driver above.


I rebooted 3 times no blue screen nothing.

[guus lambalk]

Still the same with me. I hoped that installing the SM Bus driver would make a difference.
Karlo, do you load the SM Bus controller driver or does this still have a yellow exclamation mark in the device manager.
I will try a fresh installation today.

[KarloChacon]

yes I had it it is normal it is for chipset which is normal since W2008 does not include.

my RAID settings in BIOS were

- RAID
- 4 port SATA
- Enhanced

did you updated you system ROM to the latest one?
