Rapid Storage Technology
I've been told that I need to replace my Rapid Storage Technology Driver since my hard drive and my CD or attached to this controller how do I go about uninstalling it?
and reinstalling the new one. If I uninstall it I have no access to the hard drive or CD. My hard drive is the old-style hard drive it's not the solid-state drivers.
I'm currently running Windows 7 64-bit on Aurora R4
I am sorry for such a stupid question but your help is appreciated

Hi Tesla1856,
thanks for responding to my question.
So these drivers you're pointing to on the Intel site do you think they will take care of the situation I have
I am running a standard hard drive not solid-state. I was looking at the newest one and it doesn't mention anything about the standard hard drives
just the solid-state drives.
I am old school so therefore I don't know too much about the solid-state drives in their controllers.
I appreciate all your help
... do you think they will take care of the situation I have
I never saw a problem written.

If it's NOT already installed, I would not install it.
If you are having a problem with Intel-RST (meaning it's already installed) all you can do is update it. The bundled un-install routine just removes the interface/front-end ... the core driver stays behind.
It's my understanding that ... if you want it removed from your system,that you will have to re-install Windows cleanly without it.

let's start over about once a week sometimes every other week I get the blue screen of death. I have the blue screen program that shows the address in the file causing the problem.

0x1000007e rusb3xhc.sys
0x1000007e rusb3xhc.sysI have already removed my 2 TB hard drive so that's no longer an issue. The Dell website has three versions of this software so my question is which one I am running Windows 7 64-bit Aurora R4

If you have removed the 2tb-USB3 drive, and are still getting that BSoD, yes, I would first try to update Intel-RST to latest version (easiest of 2 fixes).File name:SetupRST.exeVersion:12.9.0.1001

I just got it and I just execute it and it said this platform is not supported.
The first one I download it was just the drivers I had a brain for yesterday I could just go
to device manager an update to drivers there what do you think.Or pick one of them from the Dell website preferably the newest one

You can download and update from here:
http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/highlights/sftwr-prod/imsm
Intel-RST, in general, can't be un-installed. To remove the core-driver from your system, you will have to clean install Windows (see my Favorites).
