I have a feeling that this mainboard might be malfuncioning and that's why this is happening.
for some reason when intel sata is being used it's not able to even see installed win on the drive. meaning that win repair can't fix nothing.
I don't know. I'll probably try your method.

Yes, please try my method exactly how I initially outlined it for you, it will work.

What means "very well"? Works it better than with the Intel RST v11/12/13 platform drivers (e.g. v13.2.8.1002)?
Does your on-board Intel SATA Controller run in AHCI or RAID mode?

Very well ≠ failure

I didn't mentioned. there was old HDD connected also on gigabyte sata controller (it was the only HDD in this PC before I added SSD).
after I disconnected this HDD today, SSD with installed win7 booted into windows after that registry fix you wrote about. facepalm. after all this time and years with computers I thought I have seen everything LOL.

Glad you figured out the source of the initial hassles! Now you can probably put that drive back, just be sure to go into where I showed you (Peripherals I think) and move SSD to the top of the hard drive boot priority list after you boot back to BIOS with that HDD attached again.

Hey people. I have recently bought a SSD disk, after reading a bit i see I have IDE and its better to have AHCI enable. So i haven't yet installed the OS on it. I have searched on my bios( AMIBIOS ) and i dont have that option. I have Storage configuration [Enhanced] other 2 options "DIsable or Compatible. Enhanced Mode Support On [ S-ATA ] other 2 options P-ATA or S-ATA+P-ATA

I have an ASUS P5KL AM EPU board, my ATA/ATPI Controller is 82801G GB/GR/GH (ICH7 Family) Serial ATA Controller - 27C0
Is anyway i can get AHCI enable? Thanks

ICH7 does not support AHCI, time to get a new motherboard, it's a waste to have SSD on such an old system, it will perform better than HDD but still will be limited to IDE Speeds.

There is however, a fix like this that may give you some improvements, but unsure if it works for all boards
http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/ich7-m.460478/

I assume you meant P5KPL-AM EPU? If not, and you meant exactly as you typed, please link me to BIOS download at Asus website and I will check your.0 BIOS for best way to configure those settings, but I already know there is no AHCI

Hey Lost_N_BIOS, yes its P5KPL-AM EPU, ( i forgot to write the "P" ). Here is the monster board https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/P5KPLAM_EPU/ . I know more expensive than my computer lol. I will be upgrading this new year or before. I just wanted a few boost in performance while i dont have it. I see i have this on regedit
The bios i have is 0401 , i see now there is a 0501 version https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/P5K.../HelpDesk_BIOS/

Thanks

Did you run the batch file edits on post #7 - MSAHCI may be in registry no matter what.

Run AS SSD and select your hard drive, does it show IDE or MSAHCI in the drive/driver info area on left side. Download is at the very bottom of the page "little cardboard box"

Here in reply two is more info on the BIOS setting choices you have
https://superuser.com/questions/278532/w...otherboard-bios

I also checked your BIOS, and looks like maybe only setting hidden from you is memory remap option in Chipset/NB section. It's not hidden, but set to "Supervisor" account, maybe you can see it though?
Also RTC Alarm Time? In power section, right under power on by alarm/days/time
And Quick Boot + Full Screen Logo in Boot section, maybe you can see, or not, not hidden but not set to User account either.

Hi Lost_N_BIOS, i haven't. I just took at look at it now, i will try it when i get home. I need these tools right ? That you posted here BIOS Modding: Introduction and Preparations

I have run the AS SSD mark and it shows "intelide - ok" so this means IDE correct?

The memory remap yes i could see it. About the RTC Alarm Time i dont remenber, neither the Quick Boot + Full Screen Logo. I will confirm this when i get home.

I have RTC Alarm time - Disable . ANd yes i can see the Qucik boot + full screen also.
So i have tryed the drivers from post#7. but i think i messed up because now it doenst pass from windows logo but it does boot. Now i remenber and installed 27C1 1 driver when it should be C0. But i didnt see any C0 so i tough this c1 would work, my mistake.
I will reinstall windows and see if any of the 11/12 versions has a 27C0. I should had checked both but whatever i learnt my lesson

Yes, that means it's in IDE mode with IDE driver in use. Thanks for confirming about the BIOS settings, I wasn't sure if they were hidden from you or not, usually hidden looks different, but those were not set normally like all other visible or hidden items so I was not sure.
You can do an "In Place" upgrade to same version and keep all your installed stuff, if you have not started a clean install already. Did you read the bottom of post #7 about the INT13 thing and windows bootloader, and post #13? I have never done this, so only reading what they discussed.

I know in normal situations on boards with AHCI, you must also make these changes in registry before rebooting to BIOS to switch IDE to AHCI mode

Enable switching between all IDE/AHCI/RAID modes by changing "Start" Values in these keys to 0

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Msahci\Start
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Pciide\Start
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\iaStorV\Start

If you try again with different settings, do the above first in windows before you make the other edits

I haven't started a clean install yet. I was searching if i could roll back to the old driver, i dont see any other issues its just appears the Windows logo and it reboots automaticly.

ABout those methods i tryed only first 2 with no luck , but the 3 at same time i haven't.
Is there a way to roll back a driver on REGEDIT ? I installed the " Modded+signed Intel RST(e) drivers v11.7.4.1001" I'am stuck at the windows repair and i can use cmd.I have tryed a comand to open device manager to see if i could roll back to the old. I tryed "C:\Windows\system32\devmgmt.msc but no luck.

I thought it was all one method, or did you mean the registry changed I mentioned? If you're talking about what I mentioned with registry, yes first two are all you need to change usually but since you install Intel drivers I'd go ahead with third one as well.

This is XP correct? How are you getting to device manager if windows wont boot past logo? Can you boot into safe mode?

@Fernando - any way to uninstall AHCI driver from recovery console, or other method? Sorry to ask now, since I am unsure what the boot/no-boot status is here, sounds like no boot but then device manager is mentioned so I'm not sure where he's actually stuck at. I assume this will need fixed at recovery console or repair tools pre-install during win7/8 etc installer.
