• Satellite L300D-11V: can I run SSD in AHCI mode?

  Hello

  I just installed a SSD and Win7 64 bit on a laptop L300D-11V.

  Anyone know if it is possible to run in AHCI mode as I don't see the option in the BIOS?

  I saw there is a BIOS update but if it is not updated to enable the AHCI I would rather not bother...

  Hello

  I assume that it should be possible to use the SSD with AHCI mode.

  The AHCI means that the SSD or HARD disk would go with SATA performance but for that you need to install the SATA driver first.
  If SATA is set in compatible mode, then a SATA driver is not necessary to install the Windows operating system.
  Simply said;
  -n t need SATA drivers in compatibility mode
  -you need SATA drivers in AHCI mode

  The SATA drivers are part of the Intel Storage Manager and you can download this European driver of Toshiba or Intel page

• Is it possible to move my SSD in AHCI mode without having to reinstall Windows 7?

  Before installing Windows 7, I entered the BIOS and changed my AHCI Mode IDE SDS for a reason any and I forgot to switch back. Now, I want to put in AHCI mode because it says online that AHCI mode could improve SDD/HDD performance considerably, compared to IDE mode. However, if the mode is enabled in AHCI mode, my Windows 7 will not able to start, so I continue to choose the IDE for my SDS mode.

  Is it possible to move my SSD in AHCI mode without having to reinstall Windows 7? Or is it really useful to change the return method? I have no hard drives except an SSD in my computer.

  See how you go with the options below-

  Be sure that set you the BIOS to AHCI again on restart.

• 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.

• HP t3720: motherboard and ahci mode

  Hello. I need to install a new SSD, but I can't find the ahci mode in the BIOS (I've already put 0 in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesMsahci\\\)

  The motherboard A8M2N-(NodusM3) support ahci mode?

  Thank you.

  Yes, I see that (I do not understand because this chipset does not support the AHCI), but the controller cannot be changed on AHCI, nor a BIOS update that will change.

  If your PC has a disk RAID controller in the BIOS, which can give you slightly better performance on IDE mode so you can run with active RAID.

  AHCI will simply not happen on your model.

• Inspiron 11 3147 cannot detect SSDS in AHCI mode.

  Hello.

  I bought the new Inspiron 11 3147 (2 in 1 model).  When "SATA Operation" is set to computer laptop AHCI cannot detect the SSD (Intel 530) in the Setup Windows 8.1.

  When I change "SATA Operation" to ATA Windows 8.1 can detect SSD in the installer without any problems.

  I think that it is the BIOS error. There will be an update? I can't use my SSD now :(

  Kind regards.

  Resolution is not to use the disks mentioned problems that Dell does not guarantee compatibility.

• 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?

• SSD in AHCI on Pavilion m9350be mode

  Hello

  I installed an SSD (Samsung 840 EVO) in my Pavilion m9350be. Windows 7 recognized the HD and the drive works normally. Impossible to run in AHCI mode. When I change to AHCI raid in the BIOS, the PC unbootable.

  Thanks a lot for your help!

  Hello:

  You would need to change the BIOS to AHCI setting and then reinstall the operating system.

  I don't know anyway, that you can modify it by adding the driver AHCI RAID mode and then change the setting to AHCI.

  You can add the IDE mode AHCI driver, restart and change the setting in the BIOS to AHCI, but not with the RAID.

• 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:

  There is no port mSATA on this model. Page 94 shows how to get into the hard drive Bay to replace the hard drive with an SSD.

• 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.

• SSD upgrade problem AHCI mode

  I want to change my HDD with ssd (OCZ Vertex 4)

  I have HP Envy 17 2101er

  It is already set to ahci by default. You can just go ahead and install the SSD

• 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.

• 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 '?

  Ultinate of Windows 7 SP1 (64-bit)

  Motherboard - Asus P & P55D-E

  -Boot disk Kingston HyperX 240 GB SSD attached to the gray SATA3 port on the motherboard.

  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.

• SSD and VN7 591 G Standard SATA AHCI Controller

  Hello

  Bought a 70RT with Windows 8.1 VN7 591 G

  I installed a Samsung SSD and cloned the operating system with the Samsung software for these purposes. The BONE was very quick start, only 6 seconds. But the operating system was not a good performance (apps crashing and other things) tried to re-do everything a couple of times without success. So I couldn't start of the OS on the SSD, so I went to a friend and him formatted my HARD drive and install a fresh copy of windows on the SSD and successful 8.1 to do start.  (I installed all the drivers, that I could find)

  Now the operating system starts in 12 and 13 seconds. And discovered that he can miss some driver like it using the standard SATA AHCI controller. (can't say if that was something else before I didn't look more than)

  

  If anyone with a portable Nitro V that came from the factory with a SSD could look over that and tell me if there is any other controller. I'd be happy.

  I am also having wifi issues. I don't have that before I reinstall windows. I installed the drivers and the patch, but nothing. I have to keep opening to the top of the installation of the drivers and click on repair to get 10-15 mintues of good connection...

  Another little thing bothering me is the touchpad. I could double tap with a finger on a scroll bar and drag it. now it does not work like that (I can still use the 2 finger gesture). Installing the synaptics drivers but can't make it work as before. Im not able to scroll using the right side of the touchpad no longer.

  I appreciate all the help,

  Thanks in advance!

  on the SATA drivers, have you already installed the Intel chipset drivers?

  also, I would check SSD cache:

  in Device Manager, click on hard drives, double-click on the SSD drive, click on policies and check if both options are selected, click OK, and restart.

• Very slow internet connection on Win 7 on SSD, but works very well with the OS on the HARD disk and the mode safe on SSD

  Original title: network very slow connection on the current installation of Windows?

  So my situation is that I have two disks (SSD and HDD) who both have a Windows installation.

  Because this SSD is an I got free and is in used condition, I left my copy of Windows 7 intact on my mechanical failure of the SSD drive.

  Now the question is, my internet connection is very, very poor, unless I run in safe mode, or the installation on my mechanical drive.

  I use a wired connection, and our connection at home is limited to 120/10 mbit/s, while I have 5/10 at the most.

  I tried to replace the LAN drivers of my motherboard (MSI FM2-A85XA-G43) using both the driver disc that was bundled with my motherboard, Device Manager and the official site of MSI, I also checked my entire system using Malwarebytes, which detected 7 threats and were abducted, nothing helps.

  I also tried the DNS which did nothing either of hot flashes. Now notice what computer of my brother is also connected and works well.

  Now as I type this, I discovered that my speed has suddenly got stable again out of the blue, but I'm skeptical it will remain, so I still want to ask what is / was going on here.

  Thank you for your time.

  Sorry for the late response here, I've been very busy with the developments in the last days and completely focused on it.

  More than a week has passed since the problem disappeared as if by magic, and so far I don't see the signs of what is going on again.

  I think that the problem has passed away now, but if it arises again I will probably update this.

  Thanks for all the suggestions and your time in this issue.
