I am trying to install Windows 7 on my test machine. However, I can't get it to detect any drives - three are 3 disks in the system - it is an IDE disk. When I try and install, it can't detect any disks, but when I try and install through Windows Vista, it detects them. However, then it says it needs the driver for the LSI Logic 22910, 21002 PCI SCSI adapter; 53C896 Device. Is there still a version of this, and if so, where can I get it? I have tried everywhere I can think of, including the LSI website!

Are you connecting your drives to a PCI card of some sort? I'm a little confused why Windows is asking for SCSI drivers for an IDE drive - do you have any SCSI drives at all?

Its not connected to a PCI card, and all the drives are SCSI

Ok, in the first post you said "it is an IDE disk"? Are the drives connected directly to your motherboard? If so, please post your motherboard model here and I'll see if I can find the drivers you need.

I've had a look at that motherboard and there's no SCSI onboard - so your drives are either connected to an external card, or they are SATA.

You can download drivers for that board here for your OS (for Vista 32/64) - the SATA one you would need for installation is labelled "NVIDIA SATA RAID Driver (Preinstall driver)":

Thankyou.

I did that, but on the Load Driver screen, it said it couldn't find a suitable driver!, hence why I got that LSI message
