Proliant DL380p G8 and Disk controller P420i issue

[DiegoLop]

Dear all,

i tried to install MS W2k8 x64 R2 Std. Ed. on a HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8 E5-2609 1P 8GB-R P420i/ZMR SATA SFF 460W PS Server/S-Buy server but the OS doesn't load the drivers for P420i disk controller.

I downloaded all the drivers for the disk controller for Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 x64 on the HP Driver page and after uncompress these i copied all to a USB key.

When OS prompt for the drivers it is found in the USB key but after the progress bar check a several times OS inform that the driver doesn't match with the disk controler.

I attach a screenshot of the OS message.

Do you know how i could fix it ?

Thanks in advance for your help.
