* 1 OVERVIEW
****************************************************************************
This document describes in detail the correct steps to follow when
installing driver support for Intel(R) Turbo Memory, including operating
system and motherboard configuration requirements.
****************************************************************************
* 2 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
****************************************************************************
1. The system must be 1 of the following systems, and have the correct
version of the Intel(R) Turbo Memory Hardware:
- Intel(R) Mobile 965 Express Chipset Family platforms supporting
AHCI Mode
- Intel(R) 3 Series Chipsets utilizing ICH9R Desktop Platforms
supporting AHCI or RAID Mode
2. The system should contain at least the minimum system
memory required by the operating system. For Microsoft Windows
Vista*, the recommendation is at least 1GB of system memory with
an absolute minimum of 512MB.
3. The system must be running the following operating system:
- Microsoft Windows Vista x32 Edition* (RTM, version 6000)
- Microsoft Windows Vista x64 Edition* (RTM, version 6000)
No other operating systems are supported.
4. If testing on the Intel 965 Express Chipset based Mobile Customer
Reference Boards, the system must have Legacy BIOS 0.43 (or later)
or Framework BIOS 0.69 (or later) loaded onto it and must be
configured in Enhanced AHCI Mode.
Setting the BIOS to AHCI Mode is briefly described below:
Legacy BIOS:
Intel -> ICH Control Sub-Menu -> Integrated Device Control
Sub-Menu -> ICH SATA PATA Control Sub-Menu
Set the following Setup Items:
SATA - Device 31, Function 2 = Enhanced
AHCI Configuration = Enabled
DFOROM Support = Enabled
Framework BIOS:
Boot -> Device Option -> Interface Combination
Set the value to "Enhanced AHCI"
5. For systems supporting the Intel (R) series 3 chipset utilizing
ICH9R, the sysetm BIOS must be placed in ACHI or RAID mode. Please
review motherboard BIOS setup documentation on how to configure these
modes.

****************************************************************************
* 4 DETERMINING SUPPORT FOR INTEL(R) MATRIX STORAGE MANAGER AND INTEL(R)
TURBO MEMORY
****************************************************************************
To use this readme effectively, check your system mode.
The easiest way to determine the mode is to identify how
the Serial ATA controller is presented within the Device
Manager. The following procedure will guide you through
determining the mode.
1. On the Start menu, select Control Panel.
2. Open the 'System' applet (you may first
have to select 'Switch to Classic View').
3. Under the 'Tasks' tab on the left, click on the
'Device Manager' option.
Note: From this point forward, it will be assumed
the Device Manager is being viewed in "Devices
by type" mode.
4. In the Device Manager, look for an entry named
'SCSI and RAID Controllers'.
If this entry is not present, go to step 6. Otherwise,
expand it and look for the following controller:
- 'Intel(R) ICH8M SATA RAID Controller'
If the above controller is present, the system is
an ICH8M system in RAID mode. Intel(R) Turbo Memory
driver is not supported in this configuration and you
should continue to step 8 below.
5. Look for the following controller:
- 'Intel(R) ICH8R/ICH9R SATA RAID Controller'
If the above controller is present and is a Desktop
based platform, the system is an ICH9R system in
RAID mode. Intel(R) Turbo Memory driver is supported
in this configuration and you should continue to
Section 5.
6. From the Device Manager, look for an entry named
'IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers'. If this entry is
present, expand it and look for the following
controller:
- 'Intel(R) 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller'
If the above controller is present, the system is
in AHCI mode and the Intel(R) Matrix Storage Manager
is already installed. Proceed to Section 5.
7. Look for the following controller:
- 'Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller'
If the above controller is present, the system is
in AHCI mode and has been installed in Microsoft
Native AHCI Mode. Proceed to Section 5.
8. Your system does not appear to be running in AHCI mode.
No other modes are supported by the Intel(R) Matrix
Storage Manager driver and the Intel(R) Turbo Memory
driver.
If you believe that your system is running in AHCI mode
and you do not see any of the controllers listed above,
you may choose to contact your system manufacturer or
place of purchase for assistance.

* 5 INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
****************************************************************************
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
5.1 General Installation Notes
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. This driver package will conditionally install both the
Intel(R) Matrix Storage Manager and the Intel(R) Turbo Memory
driver.
2) The installer supports an over install from a previous version of
the Intel(R) Turbo Memory Driver package.
3) The installer will over install any version of the Intel(R) Matrix
Storage Manager previously installed on the system, as each release
of Intel(R) Turbo Memory is validated with a specific version of the
Intel Matrix Storage Manager.
4. Refer to Section 6 on how to verify that the Intel(R) Matrix
Storage Manager and the Intel(R) Turbo Memory drivers are correctly
installed.
5. Refer to Section 7 on how to verify that Windows ReadyBoost and, if
applicable, Windows ReadyDrive are correctly enabled.
6. Refer to Section 8 to enable Windows ReadyBoost and, if applicable,
Windows ReadyDrive if either are unexpectedly disabled.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

asking whether you like to install this device software. The user
has the option to select the 'Always trust software from Intel
Corporation' check box. Click on Install' to install the
Intel(R) Turbo Memory Driver and the Intel(R) Matrix Storage
Driver. Realize that not checking this box correctly will cause
installation to fail and exit.
