Second method worked for me. Thank you so much. Much easier than editing registry values.

Method 2 worked like a charm and was dead simple. I did take care to clone my OS to another drive just in case, and did a test run WITH the clone. But it all worked out. Did it with my original drive/install, and all is well! Thank you SO much!!

Is there any difference in performance if AHCI is enabled before installing windows or if AHCI is enabled after installing windows (and applying the fix) ? Is there any other reason for recommending to install windows after enabling AHCI, beside the Blue Screen if otherwise ?

【need some help】I have a old Compaq C707TU laptop(updated BIOS) running Windows 7 Enterprise. There's no AHCI option in the BIOS. There's only one option similar to this i.e. "Enable/Disable SATA integration". It is currently Disabled. And this method is not working. Although my HDD is SATA1 type. PLEASE HELP ME HOW TO ENABLE SATA INTEGRATION OR GET THE AHCI OPTION.

I had AHCI enabled before I installed Win 10 but my SSD still runs with AHCI deactivated acc. Samsung magician. Any idea why and what to do?

hi so I just installed my ssd..and follow ur second step.. in order for my laptop to use the ssd as main boot performance instead of ssd. do I just need to change RAID on to ACHI? or is there something else to do to use my ssd as OS?

in my pc, in device manager - IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller, i dont have driver called AHCI, but it have "Intel(R) 82801GB/GR/GH (ICH7 Family) Serial ATA Storage Controller - 27C0", is this also means AHCI mode is enabled?? in bios, there is sata operation and i set it to enhanced, instead of compatible and disabled. no AHCI text anywhere in bios to tell me if AHCI is enabled or not.

Hi, I have a really old pc, with legacy bios I used your instructions and worked like a charm. At first after I restarted my pc it would not boot, since I'm on windows 10 it went into repair mode and after that I could log into windows. As mentioned I changed IDE to AHCI, I looked in device management and there AHCI was enabled. I have an ssd and finally I can feel the speed. Thank you so much.

May i ask if its just normal to have windows get blue screen after enabling ahci? Then after i restarted twice it started repairs then i was able to boot to safe mode. After that i restarted it to normal and ahci is enabled.

Followed Method 2 and it worked nicely. A big time saver. Thanks a ton!

Worked magically for me, I tried to install dual-boot systems Ubuntu and win10 on my dell latitude 5510, switched to AHCI mode to install Ubuntu, and later fixed the windows boot issue following this tutorial. Thx so much!

where do I find the SATA settings to select the mode for memory devices? I feel like I'm missing something important here. After the part of closing the regedit, you said to restart. I restarted it and then you said to go to UEFI or BIOS, do I do it, with safe mode or the normal way? I don't know where to find the SATA setting to select the mode for memory devices. I'm sorry ☹️☹️☹️

Thanx man. It worked for me. I didn't have no idea how to activate ACHI in my PC until now.

The last method was very easy. Thanks!

Send method not working did in safe mode command bcdedit The set command specified is not valid ? Please advice

thankyou.. i'm working on a clients OLD laptop.. swapped in a SSD drive, system was on ATA. did your 2nd method, upon first boot after inserting BCD command, it blue screened n auto restarted n then went into safe mode all on its own n installed the SATA AHCI driver.. then I did the BCD 2nd input and restarted, started normally into windows 10 n AHCI.. perfect.. I've got this page BookMarked for sure now.. 👍😉

I couldn't find the AHCI option in the BIOS of my 10 year old HP Pavillion DC5800. Anyone know where that option is? I've just bought a new SSD and it is sitting unused inside my PC . How do you do you install AHCI in to a PC? This is where a PC can be annoying. An SSD is just another storage disk which my PC should recognise without making me have to work. Any tips anyone?

The error message you're encountering, "reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key," typically indicates that your computer is having trouble locating a bootable device. This could be due to various reasons, such as a disconnected or faulty hard drive, incorrect boot order settings, or a corrupt operating system. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue: Check Boot Order: Access your computer's BIOS/UEFI settings. You can usually do this by pressing a specific key during the initial boot process, such as Esc, Del, F2, or F10. The key to access the BIOS/UEFI varies depending on your computer's manufacturer. Once in the BIOS/UEFI, navigate to the "Boot" or "Boot Order" section. Ensure that your hard drive (where your operating system is installed) is set as the first boot device. Check Hard Drive Connections: Open your computer case (if it's a desktop) or check the bottom/side panels (if it's a laptop) to ensure that the hard drive cables are properly connected. If you have a laptop, you may want to contact the manufacturer for assistance, especially if it's still under warranty. Test the Hard Drive: If possible, connect the hard drive to another computer to check if it's recognized. You can also use diagnostic tools, such as the manufacturer's disk diagnostic utility or third-party tools, to test the health of the hard drive. Check for External Media: Ensure there are no external devices (USB drives, DVDs, etc.) connected to your computer. Sometimes, the system might be trying to boot from an external source. Windows Repair/Recovery: If you have a Windows installation or recovery disk, you can use it to access repair options. Boot from the installation or recovery disk and select repair options like "Startup Repair" or "System Restore." Reinstall or Repair Windows: If all else fails, you may need to consider reinstalling or repairing your Windows operating system. This process will vary depending on your version of Windows. Seek Professional Help: If you are not comfortable performing these tasks or if the issue persists, it may be best to seek help from a professional technician or your computer's manufacturer. Remember to back up important data before attempting any major changes to your system. If the issue persists or if you are unsure about any of the steps, it's advisable to consult with a professional technician for assistance.

Thanks, this worked perfectly .

I have separate settings in my Asus Rampage III Extreme BIOS for SATA 3G and SATA 6G ports. Both have AHCI and IDE options. My OS is installed on a SSD connected to a SATA 6G port and I have other HDDs connected to the SATA 3G ports. I used the "change registry" option and then went to BIOS and changed both SATA 3G and SATA 6G to AHCI. When I reboot, I get the inaccessible boot device BSOD because if I don't restart in safe mode as you well advise, only the SATA 2G will be changed to AHCI. So I rebooted in safe mode and all worked but... I went back to Regedit and noticed that iaStorAV\StartOverride\0 is set back to "3"... But the iaStorV\Start is still "0", while the storahci\StartOverride folder is now gone and replaced by storahci\Enum. Is this normal? May this be related to my SATA 6G having a Marvell driver? I also noticed that I now have two MArvell drivers installed: 91.xx and 92.xx... Is this also normal?
