Windows Server 2008 R2 Download X64
I have just put a fresh install of MS Windows 2008 ENT. I cannot seem to find a driver for the PERC 4/dc SCSI controller I have installed.
I have been told the 2003 x64 driver would work so I attempted to install that driver but was unsuccessful. Then I was told by Dell that the driver should be native to the OS. Is the driver native to 2008 Server (or, supposed to be)? Does anyone have an answer as to where I might retrieve am driver of the controller if not? Anyway, thanks in advance.

Hello, I don't have a PowerEdge 2900, but I do have a PowerEdge 2850. I'm also just a regular bloke like yourself that just happened upon your post and after I figured this driver debacle out I registered to hopefully help. The good thing is my PERC card is the same in the PE2850 as it is in your PE2900, as I'm utilizing a PERC 4/DC. I've also managed to run into the same issue you ran into(?) trying to load Windows 2008 Server Enterprise R2 (support for 32bit processors have been removed in R2.
So no more x86 versions. My poor PE2650s never stood a chance with this OS). I can tell you officially from my experience/research Windows Server Enterprise R2 does not have support built into it for the PERC 4/DC card.
However, I was able to download the Windows 2003 x64 driver from support.dell.com and make it work after much trial and error with newer releases of the PERC 4/DC driver that were not accepted by 2k8R2. Here's the link: File name (incase Dell moves it on you guys) is 'perc-w2k3-6.46.3.64-A01.exe', date released 6/9/2005, build version 6.46.3.64, and the Dell revision number is A01.
Even though it states the driver is for the LSI Logic PERC 4e/Si it's sort of a mega pack including many other drivers such as the PERC 4/DC. This was much relief because I was thinking I would need to stick with Windows 2008 until I found this driver for Windows 2008 R2.:) What I did was: 1) Downloaded the driver and extracted it to a USB drive. 2) Booted-up via the Win2k8R2 CD and when it got to the screen where it asked to install to a partition and didn't show me a partition to install Win2k8R2 to I selected the option to load a driver. 3) From the load driver option I just browsed to the directory where I extracted the files and selected that directory. If the 'hide devices that are not compatible' option is selected (normally on by default) it will show you the proper driver. 4) Select the PERC 4/DC driver and then setup your partitions the way you would like them! From there you should be able to boot into the OS.
And really have some fun. Now you have the power. I guess the choice is yours to R2 or not to R2. That is the real question.:) Enjoy!
Dave I appreciate your response! I just received a phone call from Dell regarding the same instruction.some what. I was told that the R2 version was still in a 'trial' phase (I assume working out bugs with various drivers, etc) and did not support that controller, yet. He did state that the driver would be native to the OS (Windows 2008 Ent. Server) and should be install during setup.
Again, I have not tested this theory but, thats what I have been told. I will not be able to work on this issue until next week but I will post the outcome when done.
