Changing to AHCI RAID Windows 8

Hello
on my Lenovo U310, I have my hard drive (HDD) set to AHCI mode. I want to change RAID (0) mode because I have an SSD and can I use the Intel RST with this machine.
The problem is that when I change the mode in the BIOS appears the BSOD in an infinite loop and disappear only when I put the AHCI mode again.
I have tryied with methods of Windows 7 registry with changes alleged Windows 8 but it doesn´t worked.

I hope that someone can help me.
Thanks,

Andrés Miranda

P.D: The "alleged" modifications for Windows 8 were these:

Change: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\storahci Start to 0 (in the subvalue)
Change: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\iaStorA start at 0
Change: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\iaStorV start at 0 (in the subvalue)

Hi Andres,

I suggest you post this question in the Pro TechNet Forums Windows 8 IT: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/w8itpro

  • Changing to AHCI RAID

    Hello

    my Dell E6510 I have my hard drive put in RAID mode. I have problems using the eSata port, so I want to switch to AHCI. I followed the instructions here:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922976. However, when I start my system after setting the drive in AHCI mode in the BIOS, I see the logo of Windows (with Win7 x 64) and a few seconds later, I get a blue screen with a message that I can not read because the system is restarted. Put back the BIOS on RAID brings the system again...

    Anything I can do to work AHCI?

    Thank you

    Hi Thomas,

    Thank you for your message.

    I think I have the solution to your problem and I checked it against a machine Dell which is equipped with a similar controller with your machine. Changing to AHCI, RAID,http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922976 fix will work.

    Changing to AHCI RAID, you need a little more. Msahci driver requires Atapi.sys miniport driver to load during startup as well. If you must change the value ofStart at 0 for the following two entries in your registry. You can use regedit.exe utility.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesMsahci\\\
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\atapi

    Or alternatively, you can run the command lines below in a high window.

    REG ADD HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\msahci /v start d 0 /f /t REG_DWORD
    REG ADD HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\atapi /v start d 0 /f /t REG_DWORD

  • Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 AHCI RAID change

    Hello

    OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
    Storage: 1 x SSD
    Tip: Supermicro X9SRW-f

    Currently, the SATA in the BIOS option is on AHCI. Start Windows on the desktop without problem.

    Objective: Convert AHCI Raid mode. The integrated chipset to create a matrix to mirror with 2 x SSD.

    I downloaded the disk driver for this card and installed the Intel Rapid Storage driver/software. I reboot and switch the SATA Raid mode. Windows starts to load and immediately blue screens. Put the SATA to AHCI mode allows me to boot successfully.

    There are a few other drivers from the disc. Install these drivers, the windows are no longer boot in AHCI or Raid mode.
    iaStorA.inf: installs rest AHCI Raid Controller Miniport + RTS filter driver
    iaStorB.inf: installs rest AHCI Raid Controller Miniport + RTS filter driver

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesMsahci\\\ (set to 0 Start)
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\IastorV (set to 0 Start)

    How can I activate the raid option and get Windows to start without error? Registry hack? Other drivers?

    * Note the OS has been cloned for the SSD. I don't have the option for the new Windows installation.

    This issue is beyond the scope of this site and must be placed on Technet or MSDN

  • Can I use instead of AHCI RAID

    Hi, I have a dell inspiron 530. In the bios there is no option AHCI. Since the RAID AHCI she does that mean I can use the same?

    PS: I have 2 hard drives (no RAID). I tried to boot into windows on the first hard drive, but then it froze on startup a BSOD flashed for a few milliseconds and then he resatrted.

    Thank you.

    Hi John,.

    Thanks for posting your question on the Forum of the Microsoft community.

    1. have you tried to change the boot drive SATA mode?
    2 are you able to boot your computer?

    3. What is the error code that you get when getting BSOD?

    I understand you have two independent hard drives connected to the controller. If you are able to start your computer successfully, here is an article that can help you change AHCI RAID.

    If you can not start at all, I suggest trying the following methods and check if they are useful.

    Method 1
    Please follow the underlying steps:
     
    Step 1. Disconnect all external devices except the keyboard and mouse.

    Step 2. I would like to start your computer in last known good configuration.

    If method 1 does not work, go to method 2.

    Method 2
    Step 1: Try to start your system in a State of services necessary to the operation and a minimal set of drivers, active Mode without failure.
    Start your computer in safe mode

    Step 2: If the system works fine in safe mode, try to clean the system startup:

    Note: See "how to reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting" to prepare the computer to start as usual after a repair.

    If method 2 does not work, go to method 3.

    Method 3
    As you cannot start your computer at all, I suggest to run a startup repair to repair the damaged boot system files and attempt to start in normal mode. See the section: how to use Startup Repair in the following link.

  • U410 Lenovo - replace AHCI RAID

    Hello world

    Does anyone have solution Chipset SATA Mode to AHCI RAID change?

    Since yesterday I try to find the appropriate solution for this issue.

    I already checked:

    (1) change of tone to register as above;
    Departure from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\storahci 3-> 0
    Start HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\iaStorA 0
    Start HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\iaStorV 0
    Error HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\storahci 3-> 0 control

    Unfortunately after the restart in RAID mode, operating system does not work.

    (2) to go step by step on the description made by the microsoft support team:
    support.Microsoft.com/kb/2751461?wa=wsignin1.0

    Does not work.

    My goal is to set up my SSD as cache drive and I read - without changing the RAID mode, it wouldn't work.

    I appreciate your advice.

    Maybe there is a possibility to set up the SSD as cache in AHCI mode?

    Problem solved

    I had to change the start on 'legacy of first' Mode.

  • How can I make IDE to AHCI in windows 8

    I need to convert IDE to AHCI and how do I do this?

    IM using SATA 2.0

    Oh boy!

    I suggest you first enable it in the BIOS and do a fresh install of Windows 8 to avoid the problems I got.
    It's not easy, that I did recently after I updated my BIOS, and I also have a tri-boot configuration if you enable it in the bios, you will need to do a complete reset because I kept getting errors without end with my installation of Windows 8.

    I made the registry changes in Vista and Windows 7 by following these steps:
    1. start "Regedit."
    2. Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SYSTEM / CurrentControlset / Services
    3. open msahci
    4. in the field of right to left click on "Start" and go to edit
    5. in the value data field, enter "0" and click "ok".
    6. exit "Regedit."
    7 restart Rig and get into the BIOS (button 'Delete' hold in Booting and enable ahci in the BIOS) or whatever key is specified in the manual of your motherboard or whether it's a store bought your user's guide.
    If you have Windows 8 is installed, you need to do a slightly different modification in the registry for me that did not work so I did a reset and Windows 8 was bootable.
    It is slightly different in Windows 8:
    Quit all applications
    Go to start and type regedit.
    If you see the UAC (User Account Control) dialog box, just click on continue.
    Locate the following registry subkey:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\storahci\startoverride
    In the right pane, click Start in the name column, and then click on edit.
    In the value data box, type 0, and then click OK.
    On the file menu, click on exit to close the registry editor.
    Reboot and enable the AHCI in the BIOS of your system
    I followed these steps and got endless reboots in my Windows 8 partition that only I had to enter the recovery mode and do a full reset.
  • Install the driver AHCI for Windows XP

    Recently, I took the preload Windows 7 on my p6210f and installed Windows XP family 32-bit on another hard drive.  I had to change the AHCI IDE controller BIOS to install it, and it's always this way, because the start-up in Windows XP with the AHCI BIOS will give me the stop error message.

    I see on another thread that the AHCI controller can be downloaded here:

    The engine number of images is purely the choice of the user. I do an image after a clean installed with all updates & my installed programs. I do sometimes still 5-6 months later if I did several changes in apps, etc, but not a necessity. Most important for me is to have the first image of my machine freshly set up. I can always return to this configuration in less than an hour.

    A person who installs / uninstalls many software may prefer to make several images as. You can save as many images you have the disk space or DVD for. I use USB external hard drive to back up my images which is faster to burn to DVD.
