Dell PERC 4e/DC 320-2e SCSI RAID Compatibility question "Scott R Smith" <scott[ at ]caseworkcadcam.com> 6/23/2007 5:43:58 PM Hi Group, I am preparing to do a clean install of Microsoft Windows XP Professional x64 Edition.. I have x64 drivers for all except for my Dell PERC 4e/DC U320 / LSI megaraid 320-2e SCSI RAID(and I have a clone not a Dell). Does anyone know if this card will work with XP x64? I had big problems getting it to work with Windows XP Professional 32bit, the native driver didn't work, and the dell drivers didn't work. Using this card with Windows XP Professional on non-Dell computers is a know issue and I finally found a download where someone hacked the OEMSETUP.INF file and it worked. My next question is if this card wont work, does any know for sure whether a standard LSI MegaRAID 320-2E PCI Express Dual Channel Raid Controller will work? I can get one on e-bay pretty cheep, but LSI's website has no x64 drivers. Thanks in advance, Scott Smith

You need to choose a controller that the mfg provides drivers for if you need RAID. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/xperts64 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/charlie.russel "Scott R Smith" <scott[ at ]caseworkcadcam.com> wrote in message news:%23kWAj4btHHA.3400[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl...

Re: Dell PERC 4e/DC 320-2e SCSI RAID Compatibility question "Scott R Smith" <scott[ at ]caseworkcadcam.com> 6/24/2007 2:48:39 PM The problem is that drivers off of LSI's site wont work on a Dell pull card.

Re: Dell PERC 4e/DC 320-2e SCSI RAID Compatibility question "Scott R Smith" <scott[ at ]caseworkcadcam.com> 6/25/2007 11:32:19 PM I am asuming they wont work because the LSI drivers for XP x32 wont work on XP x32.
