• M6-k125dx Sleekbook and AHCI mode

  I've just updated to a Samsung 840 Evo 250 GIG drive.  For reasons of what ever the SSDS works only in IDE mode. When I look in the bios I have no possibility to change AHCI to IDE RAID, etc.. He said only: "no raid".

  Driver Intel and Samsung app tell me that I'm not running in AHCI mode. This results in a slight performance degradation.

  How can I get in AHCI mode?

  Here's a screenshot of the Samsung app: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31360541/Stuff/Samsung-SSD.png

  Here is a screenshot of the Windows 8.1 Device Manager: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31360541/Stuff/Dev-Manager.png

  Any ideas on that?

  Hello:

  There is no way to change the drive controller setting in the BIOS on any laptop HP consumer made in the last 5 years or so.

  After the screenshot you posted, your model speed control is set to RAID.

  Your model, even if the RAID value, provides full support for SSDS, provided you have installed the latest driver Intel RST support page and the driver of your laptop.

  Please see the discussion below for more information.

• SSD and AHCI mode

  Hello

  I have a HP HDX 18 1080eg laptop with Windows 8 running. Now, I would like to install an SSD to fix up. I heard that before installing Windows to new SSD, I should change the settings in the BIOS to AHCI on my hard drive. Now, my problem is that I can't find it in the BIOS. Where can it be found and may have changed?

  Hello:

  There is no BIOS settings to change the speed controller in the HP consumer notebooks.  Professional laptops there are select this option.

  I looked at the specs of product for your laptop and I see that it is (or can be) with two hard drives.

  So, we need to understand what is the setting of the default disk controller, which is pretty easy to do.

  I can tell you that it is set to AHCI or RAID (since your PC has two hard disks, it might be on the RAID).

  Here's a simple way to check...

  Go to Device Manager, expand the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers section and make a note of the name of speed control.   If the AHCI BIOS of your laptop drive controller value, you will see the name of the variable speed drive listed as an Intel(r) ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller.

  If you don't see this controller to this article name, the BIOS of your laptop is on RAID.

  You can confirm that glancing down the list topics in device in Device Manager and you will arrive on a section of storage controllers. Click to expand, and you will see the Intel (r) Mobile Express Chipset SATA RAID Controller.

  It is my understanding that RAID is roughly the same as AHCI and if you download and install the latest driver Intel RST, that will support the TOPPING of SSD features.

• 15 - p112ne: HP 15-p112ne: port msata and the AHCI mode

  Hello.

  I think to upgrade my laptop HP 15 - p112ne. I want to buy SSDS. So my first question is, if this model has msata port available on the motherboard. And the second question is, why I did not in the BIOS SATA mode selection? Because then I would switch to AHCI mode.

  Thank you.

  Here is the Service Manual:

• TRIM does not not despite the AHCI mode and fsutil behavior query disabledeletenotify to return 0

  Hello

  I recently changed my motherboard to a gigabyte a ASRock x 79 Extreme9.

  After this of course being the new is configured to AHCI mode and update an existing installation of Win 7 x 64 drivers using the DVD provided by ASRock, I used trimcheck - 0.7.exe to check if the trim was working, and he's not. Trim was collaborating with the Gigabyte mobo.

  I made sure also that HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesMsahci\\\ and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\IastorV starting value was 0, does not.

  Device Manager shows that my 2 SSD using a SCSI driver, which might be the source of the problem. I tried to update the driver automatically, but Windows kept existing ones, saying that he could not find better.

  No idea what is the problem and how to solve?

  Thank you.

  ASRock has suggested to do a new clean install W7, and it worked.

  Installation on the previous mobo was a unique one partition boot, and the new is a type of 3-partition GPT.

  TRIM was working on the previous mobo, but anyway when re-use of previous installation even with new pilots was not.

  So, it was a problem of Windows, but that appeared to require a clean install to fix.

• Motherboard and processor swap yeilds BSOD (blue screen error) in all modes.

  Two and 1/2 years, I'm building my own computer using an OEM of Windows Vista disk.

  Over the few months that I replaced the card motherboard and CPU on my computer at the main house, this dual boots Linux Ubuntu and Windows Vista.  It was working fine until recently.  The folks at EVGA set to day the jury after the first replacement fizzled when the machine starts up the second time.  I've since upgraded to a new modular power supply and a new processor Intel Quad (Q9300).

  Running this configuration I can't log on to windows using my main hard drive, a 500 G SATA.  I am able to choose Safe mode, safe mode with network... etc, but no matter what selection I make results in a brief flash of the BSOD, then my computer restarts. I got to the video screen to read as follows

  "A problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.  If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer.  If this screen appears again, follow these steps.  Check for viruses on your computer.  Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers.  Check your hard drive to ensure that it is properly configured and completed.  Run CHDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.  "Technical information: * STOP: 0x00.

  I have virus scanned the disc with two calls from home via Windows Vista and ClamTK via Linux Ubuntu 10.04.  I tried with just the main hard drive connected and the connected IDE as well.  The hard drive seems to be connected correctly and has no problem running Ubuntu Linux in a dual-boot configuration.

  I ran CHDSK several once... no problems with SATA cable or he analyzes with a USB adapter with my laptop also on Windows Vista.  I was able to load Windows Vista on a separate hard drive (a former IDE 160 G) and ran from the disk check a couple different time to boot from the installation CD and the 160 g, after 6 scans, no problems were detected.

  Yesterday I woke up upward and instead of my computer up-to-date 87 or so updates to build one of the service packs, I was greeted with a copyright message, "an error has occurred.  You can also contact Microsoft by phone to help solve the problem.  «Code: 0xc004e002 Description: the software licensing service reported that the license above store contains inconsistent data.»

  I saved all the information in dual boot drive of 500G, it was always perfectly accessible and I used DBAN (of derrick boot and nuke) to refresh the smallest 160G hard drive.  I have reinstalled windows vista and ran the first 80 some updates and refused permission to check my license number.  The 160G hard drive starts and works fine... but it reassures me that I have to present once again the license number.  How can I get a different result than the blue screen of death or violation of copyright?

  If she gave you this code you shouldn't have a problem.

• The card mother MS-7184 (AmethystM) in my old HP PC takes in AHCI mode?

  First of all, thank you for taking the time to read my post!

  I recently bought an OCZ Aligity 4 256 GB SSD drive. I want to use the SSD as drive replacing the original hard drive in my old HP Pavilion Media Center TV m7334n desktop PC. Here is the link to my pc:

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/product?cc=us&LC=en&DLC=en&product=1821850

  I know that the motherboard identified on the Web site above for this model of PC is A8AE-(AmberineM), but the motherboard I have is MS-7184 (AmethystM), the specifications of the motherboard is here:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00378480

  I updated the BIOS with the latest version (3.47, 03/03/2006) I can found on the HP website. In the BIOS, I can't find any info on the AHCI support. My questions are:

  1 - is the card mother MS-7184 (AmethystM) in my old HP Pavilion Media Center TV m7334n Desktop PC support AHCI mode?

  2. how to configure CMOS when I use the SSD as my main drive on the old HP computer?

  Note Please that I have aleady copy drive hard whole orginal on the new SSD and I started my computer on the new SSD. This works. I have another post questions on the recovery of the system on the SSD, the post is here:

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/desktop-operating-systems-e-g/system-recovery-doesn-t-work-on-cloned-SS...

  Thank you!

  You are the very welcome.

  I leave these settings at their default values.

  You have the SSD connected to sata port, and it must operate to the maximum 150 Mbps transfer speed, 133 or 100 no matter what readings are displayed, as would an IDE drive.

  The problem is that since there is no AHCI setting, the drive cannot enjoy the native command files or TOPPING.

  Aside from that, an SSD should be better that a standard SATA I mechanical drive or IDE hard drive.

  Even subjectively, you should 'see' a difference in sensitivity of disc, not you?

  Improved time, faster startup time for research, for example.

• AHCI mode support?

  I have a hp dv6 6178sl (i7 2 - gen 2670qm, Intel HM65 motherboard) with win 8 is installed.

  Is my supported portable ahci mode?

  I bought an ssd unit, so I need activate this mode... under the bios I can't find this setting... but under windows, in 'Device Manager', I see this point:

  Controller IDE ATA / ATAPI--> Mobile Intel (r) Express Chipset SATA AHCI Controller

  I so ahci activated already? Can I put in my ssd without any problem?

  Hi, Milite777:

  You are 100% correct.

  BIOS of the laptop is on AHCI by default, or you would not have seen that the Intel (r) Mobile Express Chipset SATA AHCI Controller listed in Device Manager under IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller section that there are listed.

  You don't need to do a thing... just remove the battery and the a/c adapter and install your SSD.

• Ensuring that my SSD boot drive is set to AHCI mode

  Hello

  To make a needed firmware update on my newly installed SATA3 instructions (6 GB/s) SSD, the manufacturer said that Windows 7 should run in AHCI mode. I'd appreciate if someone would answer the following questions:

  Q1 - How to determine if Windows 7 is running in AHCI mode? ( KB922976 apply?)

  Q2 - in the BIOS, the page where the cottage the SATA2 ports (3 Gbps) and where my CD/DVD drive is connected currently shows under Storage Configuration mode is set an 'Enhanced' and SATA before as 'IDE' not 'AHCI '. My SSD does not appear on this page, so is it relevant?

  Q3 - in the BIOS, under "Onboard Devices Configuration", the Marvell Storage Contrller is set to "IDE Mode" (the other options are 'AHCI' and 'Disabled') and the 'Marvell Boot Room' is set to 'Auto '. I suspect that this controller is one of my SSD. Is this relevant and if so, do I just put it mode 'IDE' to 'AHCI '?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I am pleased that you can enter the world of the AHCI.
  -J' have only changed the first two entries without the need for the second. So I can't tell if this is important or not. It seems not so much for me.
  -You're good to go with the update of the firmware. It's a good thing that your reader can be upgraded to Windows. My OCZ SSD requires a boot for flashing CD.
  -In my case, I had set my IDE DVD drive because it would not work in AHCI. Have you tried to use it? If you have any problems, leave as is.

• Windows 7 Professional x 64 will not install in AHCI Mode

  I'm having a similar problem and wonder what the final steps / solution?

  When I tried this with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit does not recognize the H.D.

  I also read KB and think it doesn't look good for the installation of the driver.

  If must go to AHCI at all and what I said is that AHCI mode is for the correct entry for drivers on the disc. and if it raises a question?, if it is impossible to install windows initially in AHCI how is that windows has been installed correctly at all?

  My system is going to be the motherboard Asus M5A99X, Six cores AMD 1090 t., 12 GB ram, Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.

  I have also had similar problems with my Asus M4A88TD-V EVO/Usb 3.0 is the original built the motherboard and is the motherboard present until I have find this and am hesitate to disassembly and reconstruction with the new M5A99X.

  Here's what I posted on my Asus Forum;

  http://VIP.ASUS.com/Forum/view.aspx?ID=20120422012743839&SLanguage=en-us&board_id=1&model=M5A99X%20EVO

  I just bought this new M5A99X now (previous motherboard has been renovated and has no sound, no disk support, from Newegg.com) from Microcenter and I hesitate to start tearing down and rebuilding of my custom version until I have find this AHCI configuration.
  On my previous motherboard, I tried this and it do not see the HARD drive.

  It's confusing, because if one thing works another doesn't 0_o

  I read the http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922976 on AHCI and;

  What is appropriate for the correct configuration? SATA and AHCI first, then if the AHCI drivers are not loaded, then again on AHCI (immediately) and then keep in AHCI or sata and SATA when?

  When I read it; http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/922976 it seems to suggest that I have to install mode SATA, then REGEDIT. problem is that if my computer falls down before that I still have the chance to do it then what?

  I do not currently make a Raid Config just a normal installation on a Seagate beracutta 2 TB 6 GB/s hard drive.

  I also posted on Microsoft Technet http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7itproinstall/thread/87adffb0-e498-4834-abca-cae6905492e2

  I have rebuilt since the system and it was easier than I thought that the new motherboard was set as the default AHCI. When I installed windows there is a driver load option and clicking while I was able to load the AHCI driver from the DVD player. the old motherboard there are a lot of other steps and it's more than the new motherboard diffacult. It was so much better in my other post on the forum, and thanks to these people http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7itproinstall/thread/87adffb0-e498-4834-abca-cae6905492e2 response

  all other replies to this post were of no use to me and so I hope that I have helped those who were also trying to understand this. THA post above that says he suggested to install windows 8 and this post has nothing to do with windows 8. forum message header said WINDOWS 7! where the reason why I make my answerts of the technet forums instead! Trying to sell a BONE? Im just trying to get my work and try to sell me a new OS is not going to happen with these existing answers.

  I don't have to wonder why, in one of the previous answer, so-called, was told not to post my other post on the forum. but there again question me answers in this forum.

  There are people who are eager to build computers and try to understand this thing of AHCI driver.

  on the old motherboard, it was not so easy to do. I wonder why Microsoft has a processor intel AHCI driver built in? and not as an AMD one to be recognized by the operating system.

• That means the AHCI Mode, Mode RAID & SATA IDE Mode in the BIOS settings means

  That means the AHCI Mode, Mode RAID & SATA IDE Mode in the BIOS settings means

  My computer is having problems when I bought all first it was from another provider which came as a set overclocked PC up the unit everything needed had to be put in my case & add existing hard drives & DVD etc. readers added on the implementation. I used the same location for more than 10 years before that I always built them myself I can build a good setup computer I correspond to different parts inside each other, and then he tested & sent.
  Unfortunately, the store has closed & the owner is sick cannot get their hands on him more & I had to get some add on things like new SSDS & some other bits in my system & the young boy said he would could do this job, but everything went wrong & I lost all new so I decided to recycle me like I used to do it before windows 7-64 came out I was going through a rough patch with me being paraplegic in any case it is difficult to build a new PC, so I chose this store & their confidence that went wrong now & I've been research & learn to catch up with the new technology, I do what I do anyway.
  Thing is my system is never one that you can purchase a manufacturer & I left it with the young boy & it came out all memory & was not necessary but of course upset of that ruined the setting completely overclocked so I did it myself & I got the work faster than ever, & quieter PC I just got the score that he had now , so I'm happy with it, but the names I came across while overclocking I came across that I'm not average or really lot as were dealing with Fast CrossfireX DDR RAM 1600 MHz.
  Please don't tell me that I should not be messing around with what I made since 1989 & made great strides in how everything works, I am not aware about this sort of thing I know SATA what it is & done, but those responsible for setting came from the part of overclocking in the BIOS I put then correctly , but I wanted to know what they represent in more depth. Thanks to anyone who can put me wise on these 3 points only. Malcolm.

  I'm pretty sure that you are on the wrong "forum" for this type of topic. This forum is designed as a support Pro-type Surface ultrabook/tablets and tablet-like Surface.

  That said,

  AHCI - Advanced Host Controller Interface - this is a hardware mechanism that allows the software to communicate with the devices Serial ATA (SATA). It offers features such as connecting hot and native command queuing (NCQ).

  IDE - Integrated Drive Electronics - IDE is basically the 'old' version of AHCI without connection to hot and NCQ. (It is usually used during the era the Parallel ATA (PATA) hard drives)

  Now. Mode AHCI and IDE mode - what is - this? IDE mode is to give you the greatest compatibility with older operating systems. AHCI is as I mentioned above, a modern version of the IDE - use the AHCI mode if you are running recent operating systems (Windows Vista + and Linux kernel 2.6.19+).) IDE mode will allow you to connect older operating systems with SATA drives.

  As I mentioned above, SATA is Serial ATA and the replacement of hard drives Parallel ATA (PATA).

  RAID - this is a storage technology where combine you multiple disks in a unit of 'single', depending on the mode, there may be RAID-0 and RAID-6 and each with different hard drive configurations. I will explain the simple examples: RAID-0 , which is the distribution but no parity or mirroring, this means that there is no data redundancy, if there is a failure on a disc, it will cause the loss of data on the entire RAID array. Ex: You 0110 as writing the data, 01 goes on disk 1 and 10 goes on disc 2, allowing a faster data read/write access.

  RAID-1- This is the opposite of RAID-0, which is mirrored without interlacing (no parity or the other). Basically, this means that you have an exact clone of disk 1 disk 2 disk 1 failure.

  RAID0 + 1 is that both RAID 1 and 0 is, IE interlacing (write data simultaneously to two [or more]. disks more mirroring failure) the minimum amount of disks required for this type of installation is 4 IDENTICAL drives.

  There is also RAID 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. That is just more implemented different configurations of distribution/parity/mirroring on disks.

  That being said, your RAID mode will allow you for some type of RAID configuration, if you choose to do so.

  Supplement: Many SATA controllers can enable AHCI separately or in combination with RAID support. Recommend Intel choose RAID mode on their motherboards, allowing also the AHCI, rather than AHCI/SATA mode for maximum flexibility (in the case that you ever want to build a RAID array), because there are a few problems that occurs, usually BSOD, when you choose a different mode once an operating system is already installed.

• Cannot set in AHCI mode for disc SSD NB300

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba NB300 netbook, running Windows 8 Pro 32 bit, very happy with it!
  I have a Corsair 3 112 GB Force SSD drive is installed, and everything seems to work fine!

  Read on the SSDS, I see that a better performance for executing the SSD in AHCI mode.
  So I went to menu configuration of startup and changed compatibility in AHCI mode.
  I actually tried a few times, always with the same result, failure!

  When the system is trying to start I get a message saying that there was a problem and that
  the system is trying to gather information.

  The only solution is to go back in the program installation and handed to the compatibility mode.

  The BIOS is up to date, and I just don't see any way to solve the problem.
  I really want to get best performance with this net book as possible.
  I have a screenshot of the details of Speccy SSD drive, but I don't see a way of fixing?

  If anyone can advise me on how to get mounted AHCI mode and go that I would be really grateful!

  Thank you

  Unfortunately on this forum we don t have reports on the use of the DSS on NBs I have NB520 and I would use the SSD for, but so far I didn't find the right.

  As far as I know by default BIOS is set to AHCI mode. What operating system you have installed? The original that you got with your laptop or your own version? Have you installed the s Intel Storage Manager of the Toshiba download page?

  Yes you can do it but I'm afraid, you must reinstall Windows XP Home edition m.
  Why? Because before beginning to install Windows XP Home edition, you must change it to AHCI mode, launch the installation of Windows XP Home edition and before you start you need to load the SATA driver (via F6 I think).

  Long time ago, we have discussed a lot about this on this forum then use the advanced search anc check options other postings on this subject.

• Windows 7 64 bit and AHCI support on DC7800 convertible minitour?

  Hi guys.

  I have an old HP DC7800 (it actually says DC7900 on the box, but several said firmwares is a dc7800 for some odd reason...) minitour convertible that I use at home, running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit.

  I put an SSD in this PC and when I went into the BIOS to find AHCI settings it shows only RAID and IDE.

  Now, I read about it in this forum and this guy is that he works with Intel Matrix Storage Manager (RAID drivers), but it was Windows Vista. However, I am on Windows 7.

  What I can find there are simply no drivers for this on Windows 7.

  Anyone have experience with this?

  Would be sweet to get this working...

  Thank you in advance.

  You are the very welcome.

  I did some basic research on SSDS and disk controller settings.

  I installed my first (and only) SSD in a HP Elitebook 6930p who owns the AHCI mode.

  I played with the idea of putting one in my dc7800 as you did and of course I would have had my speed on the RAID controller, but I found some interesting links I posted for your reading pleasure.

  Since you don't have the choice to choose AHCI, you would probably be OK in IDE mode if you find absolutely change the controller and reinstall the OS a real pain.

  Do some research on Google more.  There is a pretty good amount of links out there on this.

  For me, it would be more important to have a mechanical drive, set the RAID SSD RAID that supports native command queuing too, as far as I know.

  An SSD does not turn to find the data as a mechanical drive only.
