That fixed my problem, thanks !
Hopefully, it will also fix my recurring BSOD problem too since I’m running my SSD in AHCI instead of IDE now.
After upgrading my computer with a new motherboard, CPU, Gfx card and RAM I had quite a few problems accessing Win7. Turning IDE on helped me reconfiguring and updating the drivers. HD, SSD, DVD, power plug and case I could reuse. With that information AHCI also works now on my system. Thanks.
You help me solve my problem similar to this. Many thanks.
