    Dated 9/26/08, v. 10.64.10.3

    Direct Link to x64 Vista/Server 2008 version:
    http://www.marvell.com/drivers/driverDisplay.do?driverId=154

    Direct Link to Multilanguage XP/Vista x86/x64 version:
    http://www.marvell.com/drivers/driverDisplay.do?driverId=175

    Multilanguage has ALL of the drivers for the listed OSes, the x64/Server2k8 just has those two.

    EDIT: They didn't screw me over, and actually seem a bit zippier, so let the good times roll.

    EDIT: SeeYouInTheER had a problem, so keep your previous ones for a potential rollback if necessary.

    I'm using 8.5.0.1032, dated 8/15.

    Try these: http://rapidshare.com/files/152821622/SATA.zip.html

    Both x86 and x64 are in there. One is 32-bit, the other, obviously, is 64.

    I found the floppy configuration drivers while hunting around Intel's site about two weeks ago. I don't know if you need the "Matrix Storage" software. I'm certainly not using it.

    do NOT download the markell drivers, they made my whole internet not work on this laptop, they start some kind of service that denies internet access to the LAN port, and wireless card, DONT INSTALL

    Did you do the Control Panel / System / Device Manager / Network Adapters, rightclick, Update Driver Software and point to the INF?

    Furthermore, are you still using Vista64, or did you do XP or Vista 32?
    This is a very helpful and insightful comment, but when you know where to look to find drivers for your system, it's not particularly hard to hunt.

    i found out what was causing the problem. when you install the driver it installs a service, the service is what disables your internet, so you gotta run services.svc and disable it. picture for you.

    Only thing I can think of...

    ...do you use a hardware/software firewall or a proxy?

    Also, that's one hell of a hole in the mother****ing god****ed piece of **** pro****infanity filter.

    Hmm. That is odd.

    As for my "mouth," I was making a point that it let "faggotry" through but not d4mn.
