Getting website updates is a slow and painful process at Adaptec.

That would depend on the device. For Adaptec aic7xxx and aic79xx drivers,
you can use the site I provided.

I don't know enough about your problem to be able to say. There have
been lots of fixes to these drivers over their lifetime, so upgrading
is a good first step.
