MSI 865PE Neo2-FIS2R i865PE Vista compatible?

[mchen01]

Hey,

Anyone know if the MSI 865PE Neo2-FIS2R i865PE is Vista compatible?

Thanks!

All I can find is that someone had problems with the Intel RAID software on an 865PE:

This suggests that Vista probably works, but RAID may not? (He links to software that people have said works, but then he adds that it causes STOP errors on his machine, so..)

If you treat it as a standard Intel 865 board, you should have any issues. Get your drivers from Intel, specifically the chipset drivers, and you should be fine.

I'm having trouble finding the chipset drivers. Anyone know where I can get them?

Hmm... that's only the LAN driver. Do I need the other parts of the chipset drivers?

Linked from the main page of Intel Support:

That's the chipset driver that should go on before any other drivers.
