Hi Susie!
I do not knwo if we are missing some thing here but I have the same
problem I can't load the aic7xxx Update wich contain the new deriver either
It say it already loaded !!! When I know that it isn't since the possible
existing
one is may be the old one. I can boot with the disk but I cant install the
new
aic7xxx. So please let me know if you make progress in this issue !
