Promise Ulltra IDE Card Drivers

I have a PromiseUltra IDE Card from about 3 years ago, and Vista does not provide default drivers for Promise. I tried the Standard IDE Card drivers, but those did not work.

Have you checked the manufacturers website or contacted them regarding drivers for your device, or whether they'll support Vista in the near future? You can report this to Microsoft via here: http://www.vistabase.co.uk/welcome.php?bugreport

I ran into this problem myself - get the latest driver .zip file from the Promise website, then burn ONLY the contents of the "WINXP" folder to a CD (these are the Windows XP drivers, I believe there were 3 such files). Then during Vista's installation, click on "install driver" or whatever and insert this disc - it will work, I've done it.
