I am brand new to the pc world, have been a console gamer all my life and decided it was time to make the switch. I purchased a gaming pc that is far from that. With advice from other forums and a limited budget I decided to build my own, and since this is my first build I'm a little unsure about drivers.
I've watched a ton of videos on how to build them, but I can't seem to get a straight answer as far as the drivers.
My question is, I know I have install the drivers for Chipset, Network, USB, Audio and Video Card, but what about these, they are all in the Gigabyte downloads page and I have no idea what they are for.
Marvell 9128 AHCI/RAID driver
Marvell RAID Driver
Marvell AHCI Driver
AMD SATA RAID/AHCI Driver (Preinstall driver, press F6 during Windows* setup to read from floppy)
OS:Windows XP 32bit,Windows XP 64bit
And are there any more I need to install?
This is my setup:

Thank you,
Jay
