nForce driver memory controller????

[WooferWrecker]

Hi again gang,

I don't know if this is the right thread, but it has to do with an Epox mobo and nForce drivers, so I'll give it a shot...

I installed the new nForce drivers tonight, being version 6.39... after completely uninstalling the old drivers, which were version 6.16 beta from Techconnect.

It was only when I ran Aquamark after installing the new drivers, that I realised that the new version hadn't installed any GART or memory controller drivers. Upon further investigation, I discovered that version 6.39 is for the NForce4 ONLY. At this point, I felt pretty silly, but I figured I could just uninstall the 6.39's and go back to my previous version ( I did however, keep the network driver and firewall)

The thing that is bugging me is that having gone back to the 6.16 betas, 6.14 betas, and currently on the 5.10 WHQL's, I can't get the nForce memory controller drivers to install.

And it seems to have cost me around 2000 Aquamark points.

Does anyone know how I can get them (The nForce memory controller drivers) back onto my machine?

I have tried updating the drivers manually, but have had no luck.

From what I remember, there used to be multiple "nForce memory controller" 's listed in the Device Manager> system devices> window where the "PCI Standard Host CPU Bridge" is...

Or am I mistaken?

Any help you guys can give me will be greatly appreciated, as always

try using driver cleaner (might be in the files section) to completely remove the nf4 drivers and then re-install the correct ones.

I dont think it is in the files section to be honest
graham do you think you could upload the newest copy? or if not swing me a link to it so we can get it up?

i don't think the memory controller driver is required since it's on the cpu and not the chipset on the athlon64's.

i have the nforce3 ultra with the 5.10's installed after a clean os and there is no such memory controller listed.

He wrote it seemed to have cost him 2000 Aquamarks - since the memory controller is built-in in the CPU itself I would rather suspect the lack of GART drivers.

DriverCleaner => GART from 4.27 unified package => the rest from 5.10 release.

That won't hurt, even if the above suggestion doesn't help.

Thanks for the replies guys,

I'd like to keep the NIC drivers and firewall software... they work a treat...

I will use the driver cleaner, and then reinstalll the 4.27 GART and then the 5.10's...

Will post back tomorrow and let you know how I got on...

Thanks again all for your help!

DriverCleaner removes everything and leaves nothing left (only ashes and dust ), so you will have to install both NIC's and firewall's software /drivers again.
