    It wont install. This message appears and says "error occured while copying while file iaStor.sys. Cannot copy file to destination directory."

    What do I do?

    This is for my clean install.

    Do you have any missing drivers in Device Manager?

    If so, please double click on them and post the location.

    Thats what it looks like. I dont see anything missing. I also tried to follow Lenovo installation instructions but it didnt work either.

    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-70477#install

    I went to device manager then went to my Intel(R) ICH9M/M-E Family 4 Port SATA AHCI Controller and right click update. But it told me that the drives for my device already was uptodate with latest software. How can that be when i never installed any drives except for the intel chipset right after clean install?

    Install System Update and install just the Matrix Storage Driver.

    You can then uninstall System Update if you want to.

    The latest intel chipset driver might contain the matrix storage driver. check driver version for the ich9 controller against matrix driver version.
