activate the ahci on hp envy dv7 7250us

I upgraded my IDE drive to a SSD drive.  I need to update my bios to switch the AHCI.

There is no party in the bios setup to change the setting of the disks

You are the very welcome, Bob:

You can try the latest version of the Intel RST software and see if it works.

There isn't any other software that I know who is available.

You want the third file on the page.

  • activate the AHCI mode on Envy Dv7 - 7398ca with SSD

    Year old i7 envy Dv7 - 7398ca notebook with SSD Samsung 840 Pro x 256.  Windows 8.1

    I've updated to the SSD shortly after I purchsed the laptop.

    No problem except the Samsung SSD Wizard software keeps tagging me as AHCI mode is disabled and must be enabled and I do not see it in the BIOS.

    Or I see anything that relates in the device as IDE Manager or other.

    It seems that the SSD is optimizing not itself based on the fact that it considers that AHCI is disabled.

    I apologize for the issue being this topic seems to be beaten to death over time, but I do not see what relates to this model or similar.

    Thanks for all the ideas.

    The system is set to ahci or RAID mode. You can tell that by opening the Device Manager and look at the storage controllers. Anyway it is optimized for SSDS and TRIM is activated. You can simply remove the program from Samsung and rest assured that your SSD is optimized.

  • Activate the AHCI on ENVY HP dv7-7304tx for the optimization of SSD

    The second disc is the original disk of spinning.

    Software Samsung magician tells me I need to enable the AHCI (which is not possible in the BIOS) mode to optimize the SSD.

    There are negative consequences for the rotation disc?

    Yes, the answer is the same for you. The RAID controller fully implements native SATA and is just as good as ahci in the optimization of the performance of the SSD. It will hurt you in any way the second mechanical disc by installing the Intel Rapid Storage program.

    I installed a new Pro 850 Samsung 1 TB SSD drive which replaced a Samsung 256 GB SSD.  However, I am unable to get the computer to start with I select AHCI mode in the BIOS of the reader.   I can only boot into RAID mode and magician then tells me to activate the AHCI for optimal performance.

    Mr President.

    Thank you very much!.  I tried to solve this problem for days.  I had already installed a new copy of Windows 8.1, so I've been worreid I need to start over, but I do not have.  All I had to do was follow you to start in safe mode.   I then rebooted in UEFI, changed the RAID on AHCI and disabled Secure Boot.  The system then finished the re-boot and is in AHCI mode.  I have not lost all data on my three internal drives (1 SSD and 2 hard drives).  For some reason, he did reformat a NAS attached, but I don't have something out there that was not saved.

    I really apprecitae your help!

  • Satellite P100: How to activate the AHCI mode?

    As all you know, some laptops P100 series are equipped with a controller Intel 82801GBM SATA natively supports the AHCI and with a Fujitsu HDD which takes in charge the NCQ.

    However, the disc is forced in compatibility mode, and therefore the NCQ is disabled, resulting in a loss of performance (which is certainly necessary that laptop hard drives are generally slower than those of office).

    Unfortunately, there is no option in the BIOS which activates the AHCI mode and no tool like HWUtility that can twist that (although it wouldn't work). As far as I know, newer laptops support AHCI mode and there is also an option in the BIOS to enable it.

    Is it possible to activate the AHCI mode in our laptops beloved and make the most of our hard drives?

    Hello

    Do you think that the AHCI is disabled?
    You can run the Intel Chipset ID utility to determine if the ICH7DH SATA controller is already running in AHCI or not.

    However, I studied a little more on other forums that are a little more specific and find this:
    Activate the AHCI on Intel chipsets, without having to reinstall Windows 2000/XP
    http://www.Neowin.NET/forum/index.php?showtopic=457699
    and

    But you know, everything you make are at your own risk!

  • How to enable the AHCI for HP ENVY TouchSmart m6-k015dx Sleekbook

    Hello

    I upgraded my hard drive to an SSD and it's done. Laptop works very well.  The Samsung SSD software installed and it says that I need to enable AHCI to get the SSD running at full capacity.

    I searched the BIOS and don't see anywhere to change that.  I then went to the Device Manager in Windows 8.1and I don't see any ATA/SATA controller.  All I see is a RAID controller. RAID controller in a laptop?

    Can someone tell me how to activate the AHCI?

    Thank you.

    Hello:

    Because your laptop is a portable consumer there is no way to change the BIOS to AHCI setting.

    The BIOS is set by default for RAID on your model series because some models come with one of these drives covering with a SSD and for a technical reason, that those who must be configured in RAID 0 mode so that Setup work right.

    It is my understanding that if you install the latest driver Intel RST, which is supposed to support TRIM SSD starting with the Intel 7 series chipset, and yours has series 8, so he must have full support for one SSD usage even in RAID mode.

  • How to enable the AHCI for HP Envy M6 1205dx.

    I just bought a Samsung 250 GB SSD EVO. One of the important things to do is to activate the AHCI. I can't find this option in my BIOS. How can I activate it?

    Hello

    This is the default option in the BIOS.

  • G9 - 791 tried to activate the AHCI in the BIOS, killed for laptop

    Since I've upgraded to a SSD, I tried to activate the AHCI in the BIOS mode, just like I did with my Alienware laptop.  After changing the setting and restart, I was unable to boot the system (it's ok), but also unable to get into the BIOS to change it back to the RAID.

    Which led me to return the laptop to the place where I bought it and get a new, still under warranty.  Is there a reason any BIOS gets damaged when you change this setting?  I'd like to use the AHCI mode instead, but I can't afford another laptop brick.

    I got it! I actually downloaded and installed the most recent Intel (14.8.XXX), and then changed RST 4 setting in my registry to reflect the changes of the AHCI. Restarted without enabling AHCI in the BIOS, to make the site everything was still good. Perfect. Return restarted to the BIOS and activated ONLY AHCI. Does not all other parameters. Rebooted (twice), and everything works!

  • G62 b31ee I need to activate the ahci on my laptop please help

    Essentially I would like someone to change (or teach me how to change) my BIOS so that I can activate the hidden options and so tell - activate the AHCI.

    Hello:

    There is no way to do what you want.

    AHCI is enabled by default, and there is absolutely no way to change this.

    If you want to install Windows XP, then you should read the guide at the link below, read the Intel section and then read the downloadable document to integrate all drivers.

    Hello I recently upgraded my pc to an OCZ Vertex 3 240 GB ssd hard drive and moved my old HDD as a secondary for the storage of music, pictures and video files. I read that using the SSD in AHCI mode will further improve the performance of the disk. My question is how can I activate the AHCI in bios dell. the only im options given are SATA and RAID. Is it possible to run AHCI? Any help is appreciated. I have better than average knowledge with pc, s but far from an expert. Thank you

    If your bios allows, you can find passage to the raid (even if you have only a single boot drive) can put you in ahci mode. Before making the change in the bios, you will have to do some registry tweaks like just change the bios setting you will get a bsod when you start.

    To enable switching between RAID/AHCI/IDE mode, you will need to change the values 'Start' in these key 0

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Msahci\Start

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Pciide\Start

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\iaStorV\Start

    Once you make these changes, restart and set AHCI/raid in BIOS, save the changes and then restart.

  • Activate the AHCI in Windows 8 / BIOS - HP Envy Sleekbook 6 - 1153eo

    Greetings,

    My computer:

    HP Envy Sleekbook 6 - 1153eo

    Windows 8 Pro

    AHCI is currently disabled on my computer and I want to get the best performance out of it. It can be enabled easily through the windows registry, but to get this to work I need to be sure that the AHCI is currently enabled in the BIOS as well. When I enter the BIOS it's not just all advanced options available, only the time and date and other bases. How can I know weather or not that AHCI is enabled in the BIOS? How can I access the advanced options in the BIOS to turn on the AHCI (if it is not already turned on, that is)?

    Thank you.

    Kind regards

    Hello:

    The BIOS of HP notebooks of consumption made in recent years is already set to AHCI, and it cannot be changed to any other setting.

    In some models that offer two hard drives, the default value of the BIOS can be on the RAID.

    Computers to only HP business notebooks have a BIOS setting to change the controller in AHCI or IDE mode.

    Go to Device Manager and expand the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers section and you should see a speed control that is listed as a SATA AHCI controller.

    In the case of AMD laptops, it can just be tagged as a SATA controller.

    How much could I add? I currently have 481 GB free of 569 GB. My computer will not slow down, but I use this laptop for games and I would like to have more space for custom content for the Sims 3 to download. It works not too badly, but there is a little late, and sometimes it freezes. I don't know if it is possible to add ram, so that's why I'm here.

    I would like to know how I'm going to do.

    A little delay could be due to its graphics, BUT you can't do anything on this subject. Your machine currently has 6 GB of RAM:

  • Activate the scan on HP ENVY 15 2 x function

    Hello

    Could someone tell me how to activate the slide feature on my trackpad for the HP ENVY X 2 15? I have read the forums and see that most of the responses suggest going to the properties of the mouse. I don't have the trackpad tab in my mouse properties. It doesn't let me access the Microsoft Arc Mouse settings. Other features seem to work on the trackpad. I can pinch to zoom, tap two finger, two finger roll. Just no sliding feature turned on. I really liked this feature on my Surface 3 Pro.

    Thanks in advance,

    David

    I can't find any information indicating the touchpad supports scans of edge, which is usually listed in the product specifications. This could be due to the touchpad and keyboard is connected via Bluetooth on this particular model.
