Dell Precision 490 Drivers

I have two workstations, one Dell Precision 490 and one Precision 470, both of which have onboard Adaptec 'CERC' SATA Raid controllers. These controllers, as I understand things, just facilitate a 'software' Raid implementation. My Precision 470 is currently running Vista x64, with a driver ported from XP. Get drivers and downloads for your Dell Precision 490. Download and install the latest drivers, firmware and software. Packard bell easynote tk85 drivers.
