Drivers and setup for Dell PERC H745 on Windows 10?

[jalah93190]

I am hoping someone here can help me with a driver issue on my workstation. I recently installed a Dell PERC H745 SAS-SATA controller card into my PC running Windows 10 Pro. I wanted to use this enterprise card to manage a large RAID array for my video editing files. The card powers on fine during the boot process and I can enter the configuration menu in the BIOS.

However, once I get into Windows 10, the device manager shows it as an unknown device. I tried to download the drivers from the Dell website, but they only list support for Windows Server operating systems like Server 2016 or 2019. I tried installing the Server driver manually, but it gave me an error. Has anyone managed to get the PERC H745 running stable on Windows 10? I am looking for a compatible driver or a workaround so I can see my drives.

Have you tried using a driver updater and search engine? Maybe check out Driver Identifier, Snappy Driver Installer, or DriverCloud. What about the driver for Windows Media Server? Have you tried downloading and installing it normally in Windows? It might work.
