Re: Rapid Storage Technology setup crash on win 7 sp1 x64

One more thing: untill today i used raid and chipset drivers provided with windows 7.

Today i installed fresh Intel Chipset Device Software, and rebooted - but that also didn't help - RST setup is still crashing.

Additionally: i checked RST in versions 10.0.0.1046, 10.1.0.1008 and 10.1.2.1004

10.1.2.1004 setup actually works and even tell it was installed fine, although - wired thing - it installs in C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology with only uninstall directory inside, and the install log is telling:

[Checking requirements]
Checking for admin rights
Admin rights OK
Checking OS
OS check OK
Checking .NET configuration
.NET check OK
[Scanning drivers]
Scanning drivers
Checking platform size
! Didn't find any INF's that match active hardware

strange, strange things...

my Bios is updated,

i don't have NIC,

and this "Error Occurred" is because one of my raid drives got bad sectors (only in unused space) - like i said it's nothing new for me, i just need RST and it's Verify to fix it <sigh>

Also “turn off hard disk after” to “never” in power options gives nothing.

I believe that topic tells it all - i'm not able to install newest (30.11.2010) RST (also tried older ones)... i tried iata_cd.exe and iata_enu.exe - both catching APPCRASH on my Windows 7...

I got my win 7 running on RAID0 matrix (p35 mb with ich9r), it boots, its fine - but unfortunatelly because of "Error Occurred(0)" in Intel Matrix ROM on one of disks i cannot mount this raid disk on my Linux (which is installed on other, non-raid disk) system via dmraid... so i got no acccess to almost 1TB of important data and disk space - i remember that RST got "Verify" option which should take this "Error Occurred(0)" away - i perform it succesfully on win xp some time ago...

Now got this win 7 and a big problem...

Can somebody help me with it? Can i trace or somehow debug setup, or maybe i can fix it on Linux?

Ps. disabling SMART didn't help.
