I have a Corsair Force GT 60 GB SATA III and I'm trying to update the firmware from 5.02 to 5.03, I have followed every step in the pdf file(http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=110257),but after the green arrow appears showing that it was successful I hit rescan and it shows the same Firmware 5.02 :sigh!: Is this normal,Am I doing something wrong?

Turbonerfs101e Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Hi ADanteM If you give system spec it will help us give u support Fist presuming your on a Intel base sata controlleur, you have to set it in AHCI mode in bios. Check if motherboard bios is up to date. As it improve compatibility and stability ove system. Check for the last sata3 driver , but like a said before with out your spec i can do mutch Sincerly yours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 14, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted September 14, 2012 When you did the update did you right click on the update application and run it as an administrator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADanteM Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 yes I did and just tried for the sake of it ...and still the same problem.:sigh!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 14, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted September 14, 2012 You might try and use the Microsoft AHCI driver if you have the MB Chipset drivers installed and try the install again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADanteM Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 excuse my lack of knowledge..but how do I do that,just point in the right direction and I'll do the rest..or at least try . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADanteM Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 I'm looking into it,but my main questions are: How do I go back MS AHCI driver? Do I have to disable AHCI in my MOBO? How do I even know if I'm using AMD's AHCI drivers and going from AMDs one to MS is that gonna bring me any problems? I know I'm a noob at this:(: but bare with me.

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 14, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted September 14, 2012 No go to device manager for the Controller on your MB it should something like Intel or AMD AHCI S-ATA Controller driver or something to that effect.

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 17, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted September 17, 2012 Now right click on the AHCI controller and select driver Info and see what driver it is using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
