    ICH10R support? cannot install any driver other than generic


    Dell Studio XPS 9100.. presumably has [according to Hdw ID] ICH10R controller
    I have tried everything Intel has for the part, but will not install.
    stuck with the generic Microsoft AHCI driver

    I am using a Samsung evo 840 ssd if it matters

    can anyone help?

    Have you tried any of the files available through Dell's support site using your Service Tag?

    Should be within your chipset drivers for the model ... Don't look specifically for ICH10R, you won't find that listed ...

    The Studio XPS 9100 uses the Intel X58 chipset.

    I don't know of any better drivers for that than those included with Windows 10.

    You may find post #3 at this site illuminating:

    The link that Bobkn gave above is a good one, Fernando1 in that thread knows what he is talking about , I am using his modified drivers 11.2.0.1006 on my X58 but I am using Raid0 , though my Evo 850 isn't in the Raid Array.

    Fernando's Main site is here

    this is the thread with his modified Drivers ....make sure to install the certificate in the zip 1st , RC>install

    OK. Win 10 goes generic ancient Microsoft AHCI driver. I doubt it allows full use of 6gbs SSD

    Benchmark the SSD and find out. Windows 10 was created far enough in the past that it could easily include proper drivers.

    I'd be more worried as to why I couldn't install the straight-from-Intel drivers.

    Fernando's Modified Drivers will install on all fairly modern chipsets , that is why he modified it , as some Manufacturers use cheaper chipset versions without all the features and thus Intel's own driver won't install, for eg. there are at least 4 versions of the ICH10 , and I am using his Modded+signed Intel RST drivers v11.2.0.1006 Driver on an old P45 Board for the ICH9R too as there are no newer Intel Drivers that would install, I use it for the ICH10 (X58) and on my X99 Board too..


    With your Hardware ID from Device Manager you can check your actual Chipset on Fernando's list here :

    you're right; i should have checked Fernando's site first. He usually has the right answer.

    He knows his stuff and hasn't put me wrong yet , and his Site was where I finally worked out why Win10 was having so many Issues on my older Motherboards with Raid. ( the Chipsets aren't supported properly in Raid by the Driver included with Win10 when you install it)

    This post is good for his recommended Drivers , at the bottom of the 1st Post is a Table of what he recommends for each Chipset
