Windows 7 installation no SATA driver

Solved
Yoyan -  
Hello,

I want to install Windows 7 64 bit on a freshly formatted desktop computer.

I need to install the SATA drivers so that the hard drive can be detected.

https://drivers.softpedia.com/get/Other-DRIVERS-TOOLS/Others/Acer-Aspire-E500-SATA-Driver.shtml#download

Problem: Windows cannot find the driver.

There are 5 files in the driver installation (disk1, m5287.cat, .inf, .oem, .sys)

However, they are recognized with wrong drivers.

How can I get them recognized?

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 4.0.1

    The computer is an Acer Aspire E500 (so I can forget about the motherboard CD).

    I just looked on the ACER website, and it doesn't support Windows 7 (nor even Vista apparently!)

    I'm set to reinstall XP, and since I don't have an installation CD (I have a copy on a PC of a XP SP3 installation but no installation disk).

    So I'm going to create a new topic right away to make this CD.

    Thanks for your help...
