Device Driver During Install Jake 7/10/2007 7:24:03 PM While trying to install vista home premium on a machine I am currently building, I am given a error that device drivers for my LG GSA-H62NK cd/dvd drive are missing. I have already contacted LG and was told that the drive is plug and play and that it should be compatible with drivers already loaded. I've also tried downloading similar drives off the LG site, but vista will not recognize them off the cd I burned them onto.

Re: Device Driver During Install "Brett I. Holcomb" <brettholcomb[ at ]bellsouth.net> 7/11/2007 1:46:10 AM If I understand the OP correctly this is during an install - at this point I would assume no filters have been installed. I know that in my install the registry wasn't even there <G>. It happened to me right after I said install and it did a scan and before it was going to copy files, etc. At that point the system had booted off the CD/DVD drive - a new Pioneer - and after clicking install it complained about no drivers. I ended up buying another CD/DVD drive that stated it supported Vista. Although why, at this point, Vista can't use the basic interface to the DVD/CD that's been around for all time to get installed I don't know.

The solution in the link did not work because all the situations assume that windows is installed already. I am not able to get past the very beginning of the install.

According to the description when I bought the drive, as well as the LG support center, it is Vista compatible. So if I'm understanding right, I probably need to go ahead and try a different drive?

Re: Device Driver During Install "Jane C" <janecolman[ at ]invalid.iinet.net.au> 7/11/2007 8:03:04 AM Hello Jake, Is this a SATA DVD drive? If so, it may be that Windows is looking for the SATA controller drivers to be provided during install. There is a 'Load Drivers' button. Any required drivers can be on floppy, USB stick or CD. What motherboard is it? -- Jane, not plain ;) 64 bit enabled :-) Batteries not included.

Re: Device Driver During Install Jake 7/11/2007 1:44:03 PM The motherboard is a BIOSTAR TForce TF7050-M2 which comes with a 4 port SATA controller.

Re: Device Driver During Install "Brett I. Holcomb" <brettholcomb[ at ]bellsouth.net> 7/11/2007 10:48:36 PM Well, I did but... I assume this is an IDE drive - or is it SATA? If SATA you may need the drivers for the motherboard. Jake wrote: [Quoted Text] > > "Brett I.

Re: Device Driver During Install Jake 7/12/2007 6:50:00 AM I just wanted to thank you all so much for you excellent info and suggestions. I finally found the sata controller drives on the nvidia site. After the fact this was a great learning experience, I will definitely know what to do the next time this happens. Thanks again -Jake
