Marvel 6162 SATA driver for Windows 7
There isn’t any driver for the Marvel 6162 (88SE6162) SATA controller in Windows 7 (32-bit). For my motherboard (Asus M2V) I needed this driver and I could not find them on the Asus support website. I guess Asus havn’t made these available yet. Lazy bastards! After some modifications to the Vista-drivers I could use them instead.
If you download and try to install the Vista-drivers you get a message like ”Does not support this Operating System : WNT_6.1P_MCE”. To be able to run the installer you need to edit the AsusSetup.ini file with notepad. The only thing you need to do is add a line corresponding to your Operatingsystem (WNT_6.1P_MCE) in the [OS_Language_Tag] section of the file.
I have prepared a file for Windows 7 32-bit that you can use:
Download Marvell_SATA_V10215B2 driver.
You only have to extract the files and run the AsusSetup file in the driver/x32 folder. If you run Windows 7 64-bit you can use the same files and make the same changes. If someone does this then please contribute to this post.
The driver installer then works great and the drivers are working. My SATA-drive has appeared and I am happy again.

64-bit drivers need to be digitally signed in Windows 7. The drivers I put on the webpage works great for 32-bit, because those drivers do not need to be ”digitally signed” . To get rid of the exclamation mark you should install 32-bit Windows 7 until Asus makes the necessary drivers. I guess they never do this for older hardware that is not made for Win7.

I installed these files in Windows 7 64-bit. Seems like it installed correctly with the changes you suggested. But, I still have the trouble icon (yellow triangle with the exclamation point). When installing, windows said it could not install the driver because ”This version of windows requires a digitally signed driver”. So, I’m not actually sure if it’s working correctly or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
