Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE-controller Drivers Download. In our share libs contains the list of Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE-controller drivers all versions and available for download. To download the proper driver by the version or Device ID.

One feature that was useful in Windows versions prior to XP was you could simply take out a hard drive that has Windows installed and connect it up to another computer. When it boots it up, it’ll start to detect and install all device drivers again. When you change the motherboard or move your hard drive that has Windows XP installed to another computer, be prepared to get endless looping reboots or the famous blue screen of death (BSOD). The error will usually be a STOP 7B error which is related to a problem with the hard drive controller.

This problem is often simply due to the fact that the storage controller used by Windows XP requires a different driver depending on what type of hard drive controller is on the motherboard. If the old controller uses one driver and the new controller requires a different driver, XP is trying to boot with the old driver and throws up the blue screen because the wrong driver is trying to load. The recovery console or even Safe Mode isn’t usable because Windows can’t boot anything without the correct software for the controller. The only real hope you have of this problem not occurring is to use a motherboard with exactly the same chipset for the hard drive controller.

After all these years since the release of Windows XP, it’s still not a straightforward task to move a Windows XP hard drive and partition to another computer without getting a blue screen. There are some easier ways to do it although they cost a fair amount of money. Amazingly, a large proportion of websites on the internet (including Microsoft) will tell you the only solution is to perform a Repair Install or even completely wipe your XP install with a format and re-install.

Thankfully there are ways around the issue. You can firstly avoid this problem before moving XP to the new computer or motherboard if you know what to do, and secondly the problem is still fixable even after you have moved XP to the new hardware configuration. Here’s how to do it.

Before Moving the Hard Drive or Removing the Old Motherboard

This is obviously the much more preferable method because it will stop you getting the problems after moving to the new hardware and requires the usage of no extra software.

1. Go to Control Panel and open System.

2. Click the Hardware tab and then click the Device Manager button.

3. In Device Manager expand “IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers” by clicking the + sign.

4. Right click on the FIRST controller in the list and select Update Driver, it should be the one with a manufacturer name, such as VIA or Intel etc.

5. Select “No, not this time” when asked “Can Windows connect to Windows Update to search for software?” and click Next.

6. Select “Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)” and click Next.

7. Select “Don’t search. I will choose the driver to install” and click Next.

8. Select “Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller” and click Next.

9. Click No when ask to restart. Now shutdown the computer, remove the hard drive and install it on another computer, or replace the old motherboard. As you’ve probably worked out, this solution simply reverts the driver back to the standard Microsoft controller driver you would have on a clean install. Do note this method won’t help if you’re trying to use the XP drive on an AHCI enabled target system. You need to make sure the BIOS is set to IDE or standard SATA mode.

On Page 2 we’ll show you the solution if you’ve already connected the XP hard drive to the target motherboard/system.

I used Hiren’s Boot CD method for a 64 bit Win XP when I changed the motherboard but it didn’t work when the PC rebooted and the BSOD appeared.
Rather than copying an Intel x64 iastor.sys driver to C:Windows, it had copied a iastor7.sys x86 driver when Fix-hdc.cmd was run. My work-around was by renaming the iastor.sys to iastor7.sys and replacing the iastor.sys in the i386 folder so when I re-ran the fix_hdc.cmd it copied the correct file. Restarted PC and worked.

Thanks for the article. I was able to use Hiren’s CD to fix a BSOD. In the past, I’ve been able to fix such BSODs by booting from the XP media and doing a repair install. But, in this case, I was still getting a BSOD when booting from CD. In any case, using Hiren’s CD is much quicker and easier.

Thanks again.

Thank you for sharing.
I downloaded, burned, ran Mini Win XP of the latest version (15.2) of Hiren’s Boot CD. When Mini XP loads I don’t see any icon in the system tray, there is only the clock. Not even in the Start menu there is no Hiren’s Menu icon.
Am I missing something here?

Thanks in advance.

For some strange reason the HBCD menu doesn’t appear on every computer, it should have an icon on the desktop, in the Start Menu at the top and also in the Programs menu.

If you still can’t find it open Windows Explorer, go to the HBCD 15.2 drive > HBCD > run HBCDMenu.exe.

Reply
EP3 years ago

the HBCD menu won’t appear if your original OS on the hard drive is a 64bit OS.
someone said here that “Hirens Mini Windows XP is a 32-bit XP that cannot deal with drives configured by 64-bit Windows versions”
computerforum.com/threads/hbcd-menu-missing.233870/

I’ll try this on a system that has a hard drive with 32bit/x86 Win7 on there.

Reply

I don’t believe that is the case as I’ve personally run Hiren on dozens of 64-bit systems and it worked just fine. I believe the issue has more to do with the system hardware such as motherboard and chipset and the now quite old drivers that are installed in Mini XP.

Thanks. It works. I been doing absolutely every trick in the world, for weeks, to get my XP, Vista, W7 and W8 onto a new (different) computer, w/o joy. Then this worked a charm. Worked on XP, Vista, and W7 and go me into each. All it took was to use Paragon 12 (any PM will probably do) to COPY each of these partitions to a new HD and put into the new platform. W8 required the install CD to repair, and once in W8, used EasyBCD to get it multibooting. Then used the Hiren method above to fix the HD drivers and PRESTO!

It brought a tear to my eye when it worked. Seriously the Hiren’s BootCD worked awesome. I did have to change the bios settings from AHCI to IDE because miniXP didnt recognize the harddrive with AHCI but as soon as I did that miniXP had no problem with the rest of the guide. This allowed me to get into my Vista OS enough to download the new drivers needed.

Hi guys. I just have done opposite, based on your article. Your article is talking about moving from Intel into AMD platform.

I have to do opposite. I didn’t care that much so I have done some shortcuts! :D

Renamed AMD drivers instead of Intel!

Removed IDE drivers without installing basic ones. AMD was not in Registry. So done nothing.

Moved HDD to Intel mobo – all sweet – just XP asked me to activate again in 3 days done with success as well.

Didn’t use Hiren disk at all!

Just removed hdd drivers and renamed AMD drivers in c:Windows/system32/drivers

That’s all folks! Many thanks for all info. That helped me enormously.

Kind regards…

Standard Dual Channel Pci Ide Controller Driver For Xp Download

@ pd: I think the issue is the driver XP needs to boot from SATA probably isn’t one of those WHQL drivers which are plug-and-play. It will need this one:

NVIDIA C51 SATA RAID Driver (Preinstall driver, press F6 during Windows* setup to read from floppy)

This would be the same driver you install from floppy using F6 while installing XP and is a textmode driver, not plug-and-play. Textmode drivers have to be either installed manually or on install with F6. This driver uses nvraid.sys and not nvgts.sys as the driver file.

I’ve had a Windows XP SP3 installation running on a Athlon 64 3000+ era system for a long time. With Seagate SSHD drives dropping to $99 for 500GB, I thought I’d move that install from a mechanical drive to the SSHD. Despite the install being less than pristine in state, using this method of switching the hard drive controller’s driver, then Parted Magic’s clone tool, I successfully migrated the install! Thanks for this help. It is astonishing, and also a credit to you, that this simple technique is only available on your blog.

However, can you top this by suggesting why, after getting the install to boot fine, I can’t then go and update the HDC drivers back to the appropriate nVidia nForce 430 drivers as supplied by the motherboard’s website, without a repeat of the STOP 7B BSOD? I was under the (perhaps misguided) impression that the HDC only needed to be downgraded to the old generic Windows driver in order to get the system running again. Then the proper drivers could be re-installed. Would absolutely love your advice on this topic. I’m now seemingly stuck running a SATA3 SSHD in UDMA6 (133 MB/s) mode. I know my old motherboard can’t run the SSHD in it’s optimal SATA3 (600 MB/s) mode but I have it plugged into a SATA2 port so I’d hope SATA2 speeds of 300MB/s would be (theoretically) attainable.

The problem with trying to install drivers AFTER having XP in IDE mode is when you install the motherboard/chipset drivers while in IDE mode, the setup doesn’t see the SATA/RAID controller and so doesn’t install drivers for SATA. In other words, you’re still getting a BSOD because XP still doesn’t have any SATA drivers on there!

What you have to do is insert the SATA driver manually so Windows will see it on boot, it’s not exactly easy, but not too difficult either. Have a look at the following nVidia community page for a guide on what to do.

forums.geforce.com/default/topic/419127/switching-to-ahci-nvidia-nforce-drivers/

Unfortunately I don’t have an AHCI capable motherboard. I think that’s a big part of the problem.

It seems the key to this solution is to throw the drivers in at boot. This doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me because I don’t know why the following should not work:

1) Downgrade hard drive controller (HDC) drivers to XP’s “Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller”
2) Copy the install to another drive
3) Boot the system on the new drive
4) Install the chipset manufacturer’s HDC drivers (in my case “NVIDA nForce 430/410 Serial ATA Controller”)
5) Shutdown and reboot

At this point, XP has SATA drivers, the BIOS tells XP that a SATA controller is installed, so why would this produce a 7B BSOD?

Perhaps if I’m not moving the install from a SATA mechanical drive to an hybrid SSHD drive, there would not be a problem?

Perhaps if this old motherboard supported AHCI the SSHD would use AHCI and there would not be a problem?

Reply

The problem is you cannot install the SATA drivers using the nVidia installer because you need to have SATA enabled in the BIOS first to do it or no drivers will be installed. But you can’t enable SATA in the BIOS because it will BSOD on boot.

I had this problem a while back with Intel SATA drivers and the only way it worked was to manually insert the drivers. It’s a pain but there appears to be no other way apart from possibly doing a repair install and supplying a floppy at the F6 stage, although I’ve never tried that.

The issue isn’t your hybrid drive or lack of AHCI, but simply the driver needs installing by you because Windows XP can’t do it.

Hi. Thanks for the ongoing discussion. I’m not trying to ask for specific help here so if you don’t want to supply that, I understand. I’m just fascinated by this issue. Just to get this really straight in my head …

1) My existing XP install is running on a single-partitioned standard SATA HDD. The Device Manager (View Devices by connection) displays this tree (I’ve removed the less relevant entries)

ACPI Uniprocessor PC
|
+– Microsoft ACPI-Compliant System
|
+– PCI Bus
|
+– NVIDIA nForce Serial ATA Controller
|
+– ST3300062 2AS SCSI Disk Device
|
+– Generic volume

Here’s the board: gigabyte.com.au/products/product-page.aspx?pid=1939#sp

I don’t have any single other ATA/IDE device installed, not even an optical drive.

2) I have run the driver installer downloaded from the GigaByte page above. AFAIK it’s largely just a re-bundled nVidia driver distribution. The README.txt includes the following XP references:

This XP nForce (C51/MCP51) driver package consists of the following components:

Ethernet Driver MCP51 (v50.23) “WHQL”
Network Management Tools MCP51 (v50.23)
SMBus Driver (v4.52) “WHQL”
Installer (v4.93)
WinXP IDE SataRAID Driver (v6.66) “WHQL”
WinXP IDE SataIDE Driver (v6.66) “WHQL”
WinXP RAIDTOOL Application (v6.63)

3) Right-clicking on “NVIDIA nForce Serial ATA Controller” and choosing the Driver tab in the Driver Details I see nothing but nvgts.sys and a series of nv*.dll files.

Points 2 and 3 suggest to me that I think have installed the drivers when the BIOS is in SATA mode before I clone so if I boot the clone from the SSHD (or any other HDD for that matter), am I still likely to get a 7B BSOD? If so, why?

Thanks!

I upgraded my motherboard/CPU and simply couldn’t fool Windows into booting without the wrong AHCI drivers. (Too late to go back to the old motherboard now and uninstall them!) This advice (Hiren’s boot cd method) got me into safe mode, where I can now update the motherboard drivers and (cross fingers) get into full proper windows again. Awesome!

I can’t believe I actually found an answer to this problem. A virus took out some system files, so I did a in-place upgrade of Windows with a custom made XP disk with NLite to include the SATA drivers that I’d need. Unfortunately, the in-place upgrade fails to deploy those drivers, even though it uses them to detect the HDD during Setup. I’ve been searching for two days on how to install SATA drivers on an unbootable WinXP installation, and finally found your posting. Thank you very much.

Thank you so much for posting this. I never knew about the UBCD4Win and the incredible “Fix-HDC” which performs the “MergeIDE.reg” automated!! I had an untimely and sudden death of a VIA chipset motherboard and had to switch WinXP over to a nVidia nForce2 motherboard, which obviously has a completely different IDE controller etc. Resulting in the infamous STOP 0x7B BSOD.

UBCD4Win (while not as simple as downloading an ISO and burning it) took about an hour to build & burn (by default it builds a >700MB ISO that won’t fit on a standard 650MB CD-R???).

But in the end it did the trick and it’s thanks to this blog for pointing me towards the solution!!

The above method is also a good way to repair a crashed windows installation. If it is a software problem you can use this method on the same hardware. But be sure you have the right CD and Product key.

With a hardware problem, for example some bad blocks, try to get a copy onto a new HDD and then repair using the install method.
