Drivers for K7s5a Pro?

JEDI

Lifer
My Nforce3-A/3100 sempron combo is having PROBLEMS.

So i'm back to my old k7s5a pro.

I noticed that the IDE controller says 'SiS Pci IDE controller' dated 7/1/2001.

Is there an updated driver?

Or am i fine?

If you're using XP w/SP1 or later, the Microsoft provided driver should be very stable (which is vendor-specific and most likely written by SIS).

But, if you must have the latest SIS driver:

SIS IDE Driver v2.04a (11-18-2003) - Supports SIS 735/745

Also: SIS Download Center (for other SIS drivers)
 
thx!

hm.. only getting udma mode2? shouldnt it be mode5? (Seagate 160gig hd)

or doesnt the k7s5a pro do mode5?
 
Microsoft's driver is fine, the board does do UDMA mode 5 ... but only if the cable has been detected to be an 80-wire, as required for UDMA modes above 2.
