Hello,
I have been trying to get 64 bit Windows 7 on my Dell Precision 670 that currently has 32 bit XP. I run a Raid 5 using an Adaptec AIC-790ZW Perc 320/DC SCSI Controller, (hope I said that correctly). Yes, it is a 64 bit system.The OS Dell shipped it with was XP 64bit
Using the Windows 7 install disk I get stuck at disk drives not being found. I have tried every controller driver I could find from both the Dell website as well as Adaptec site.Still, windows doesn’t see any of them as compatible and thus I cant move forward.
I tried the same with a 64 bit XP cd and got the same results.
What gets me is that I use a 32 bit OEM CD from Dell ( I dont have a 64 bit oem) and windows setup will then see my drives.What file or files live on the OEM cd that makes windows setup see my drives?
Any help or suggestions would be wonderful. thanks!
