    Try Windows Update, if it is built into Vista then it will probably be on Windows Update. Just right click on the device search for the driver and choose have driver and then hit the Windows Update button it should search and find the driver. If it does not then the driver is not ready yet. I had this same issue with my printer, the driver was built into Vista but not in Win7, clicked on Windows Update and it found the driver and downloaded it.

    This happen during the installation, window can't find the HD so it failed to installed. If I install it on a second drive SATA and do the driver update in window then it worked. Is there a way to get the driver in window, put in the jump drive and Browse it during installation? (which files do i need to look for in Window)
    thanks

    you might want to post this one on the official Microsoft forums. I am stumped really because if the vista drivers do not work then you will either have to wait for Seven drivers or see what the official people from MSFT say.
