Chapter 4: Drivers & Utilities

This chapter deals with installing the drivers and utili-
ties essential to the operation or improvement of some
of the computer’s subsystems. The system takes ad-
vantage of some newer hardware components for
which the latest versions of most available operating
systems haven’t built in drivers and utilities. Thus,
some of the system components won’t be auto-config-
ured with an appropriate driver or utility during oper-
ating system installation. Instead, you need to
manually install some system-required drivers and
utilities.

RAID & AHCI Setup

Note that setting up a RAID, or AHCI mode, needs to
be done prior to installing the Windows OS, and there-
fore before installing the other drivers listed here (see

“Setting Up SATA RAID or AHCI Modes” on page 7
- 2

).

What to Install

The Device Drivers & Utilities + User’s Manual
DVD-ROM
contains the drivers and utilities necessary
for the proper operation of the computer. The DVD
contains drivers for Windows Vista and Windows XP
(the appropriate drivers will autorun for your system).

Table 4 - 1, on page 4 - 3

lists what you need to install

and it is very important that the drivers are in-
stalled in the order
indicated (see

“Driver Installa-

tion” on page D - 25

for Windows XP information).

Module Driver Installation

The procedures for installing drivers for the RAID,
WLAN, Bluetooth, PC Camera and TV Tuner mod-
ules are provided in

“Modules” on page 7 - 1

. Only in-

stall drivers for modules included in your purchase
option.
