Need help installing sata controller

[scooterp7]

First, yes I'm a newb. I have read myself blind about instaling sata
drivers, (AT NEW INSTALL). What if I didn't no any better and have had
my OS up and running for nearly a year. How do I nstall the correct
driver. Tried the F6 thing, maybe I'm doing it incorrectly. The Device
Manager has the yellow exclamation for my scsi raid controller and
appears to be using a windows driver. Can anybody here help me
understand the install procedure for my sata driver? The website(MSI)
offers the driver for use with a floppy and is very vague on the
install procedure (I'm sure it works fine at new install) and could
use a little advice for my situation( NOT ANEW INSTALL).Your help is
very appreciated.TIA.

Just right click on the scsi raid controller in the device manager and
choose update driver, then choose the "install from a list or specific
location" option, then tell it "don't search", finally point it to the
folder or disk with the unpacked drivers from MSI. Select the drivers you
want to install, click OK and that should be about it. Might have to
reboot.
