Do you need to install Promise drivers for A7V133?

Quad,

I can answer one third of your questions:

Where can you get the drivers?

Answer

Unfortunately, I don't own this board yet so I can't talk to the other stuff. Sorry.

If you plan on using the Promise Raid controller, you need to load the Promise drives. They are on the Asus CD that came with the motherboard under the Promise directory and aslo can be found at the Promise website.

basically you need them if you want to add more hard disks on your computer, to use them as normal hdd or put them in a raid configuration.
do some search on the net...the official Promise site is a good place to start maybe.
