NVIDIA nForce Driver Updates NVIDIA has moved the nForce motherboard media and communications processors (MCPs) and motherboard GPUs (mGPUs) to a legacy driver support structure. The following desktop and notebook nForce variants will no longer receive future driver updates: nForce 9 Series nForce 7 Series nForce 6 Series nForce 5 Series. NForce is a motherboard chipset created by Nvidia for AMD Athlon and Duron (later included support in the 5 series up for Intel processors). The chipset shipped in 3 varieties; 220, 415, and 420. 220 and 420 are very similar with each having the integrated GPU, but the 220 only has a single channel of memory available whereas 420 has the 128-bit TwinBank design.

Hello,

I have an aging system running Windows 7 Ultimate in RAID on a nVidia nForce 780a SLI chipset.

Can anyone tell me how to find out if there is a chipset driver available in Windows update for this chipset?

I don't want to do the upgrade and find out that I'm being forced to do a clean installation back to Windows 7 again.

Explanation:
During the previous upgrade Windows 10 was running without the system being able to access the HDD's. I could see and access the C-drive, but when ever I opened system hardware properties, the system showed no RAID configuration or physical drives.

This also resulted in many BSOD's as the HDD's were unknown and thus unavailable to Windows 10. Making Windows react as if I suddenly pulled the HDD from the system.

Both Asus (mainboard is a M3N-HT Deluxe) and nVidia tell me the system is unsupported for Windows 10, but I keep getting the update forced to me to upgrade to Windows 10. With Microsoft telling me the system is supported.

I'd like to note that the GPU version (as there is also a GeForce 780 graphics card) is supported, but not part of my investigation.
My system holds a single EVGA GTX570HD-SC.
