Is that the GIGABYTE SATA controller? Do you use it at all?

Re: Where can I get GBB36X for my Gigabyte Mobo?

Not sure what you mean.

I have three drives (2 HDD and a CDROM). Not using RAID. All three drives are plugged into sata sockets on mobo. See system spec below.

If you are looking for the IDE drivers they are included in Windows 7.
For the RAID or ACHI:

You can get the driver here
It is the GIGABYTE SATA2 RAID Driver

It is really a JMicron JMB36X. You can get Windows 7 drivers here as well:

Thanks pbcopter,

That's just brilliant..

Many thanks.

Jessica


P.s. These drivers are for installing from a floppy disc. I don't have a floppy drive. Will they install from a USB memory stick?

Re: Where can I get GBB36X for my Gigabyte Mobo?

Yes you can use a USB memory stick with Windows 7, however if you don't use the Gigabyte/JMicron contoller for your operating system, you can install them from within Windows.

You probably better not installing them at all.
Do you have anything pluged to the purple ports?

Re: Where can I get GBB36X for my Gigabyte Mobo?

No, I have nothing pluged to the purple ports. Does that mean I don't need these drivers at all?

[Chike]

Re: Where can I get GBB36X for my Gigabyte Mobo?

The driver is only needed when using the purple ports for RAID or r in ACHI mode, otherwise the standard IDE channel driver should be fine.

Thanks for the help and advice. I won't worry any more about it.

Cheers,
