Hi everyone,
- Intel Chipset Drivers :
Install/Update Process :
Launch "CHIPSET_Intel_vxx.x.xxxxx.xxxx.exe"
- Intel MEI Drivers (Drivers Only) :
Install/Update Process :
Launch "Install.cmd" by right-click Run as admin > Automatic restart when install is done
- Intel SATA AHCI-RAID Drivers (Drivers Only) :
Install/Update Process :
- Press Windows key + X > Device Manager > Right-click on your Intel SATA device > Update driver > Browse my computer for driver software
- Browse... > Select the extracted drivers folder (SATA_AHCI-RAID_Intel_v...) > Next
OS requirements : Windows 10 64 bit or more recent.
Hardware requirements : Motherboards with Intel 1xx/2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx series chipsets (except Intel X299 chipset).
TIPS :
If you want to manage the drivers (remove old/unused drivers for example) that you have in your Windows DriverStore
Use Driver Store Explorer (Right click on "Rapr.exe" > Run as administrator).
If you want better interrupts delivery latency
Enable MSI (Message Signaled-based Interrupts) mode on all your supported devices (see the column "supported modes") with
MSI Mode Utility (Right click on "MSI_Mode_Utility_v3.exe" > Run as administrator).

Google this for more info. I built 2 Z690 TUF Gaming Plus WIFI D4's. My 1st build the same you are experiencing happened to me. To reverse this you have run MSCONFIG, enable safeboot, disable the VMD controller in BIOS, safeboot will load the AHCI drivers, go back to normal boot. You might have to boot up a couple of times. Once booted up normally. I enabled the VMD controller but left both mapping options disabled. Again, Google this for a more detailed explanation. Has worked perfectly for a couple of weeks now. Samsung Magician now sees both of my NVME drives and all drives in BIOS are AHCI (the 4 SATA) or NVME (the 2 NVME) & none under Raid.
I should add there was no performance difference running either way per Samsung Magician benchmarks read/write etc. The boot time was 3 seconds faster not mapping under VMD. Also, the Samsung driver 3.3 is somewhat outdated. I'm speculating that the Windows NVME drivers are pretty robust hence Samsung has not updated theirs recently. I'm running Windows 11 Pro FYI clean install new builds.

Hi MoKichu. Would you be able to help please?
I've enabled VMD in bios and mapped a nvme drive as well as SATA SSD under it.( god know why)
Now my NvmE samsung 980pro isnt recognized by Magician ( SATA drive is recognized for some reason), also i cannot update firmware etc. I've just read that if i got single drive non-raid, i should have been sticking to normal AHCI driver instead of VMD.
Is there any way to go back? If i disable vmd now in bios my system wont boot.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: SATA under VMD is recognized without issues.
Nvme gets a compatibility error saying that the driver which the nvme drive is connected to is not supported by the magician software
Proof that SATA is recognized NON- AHCI
