Re: AHCI- no hdd- Help !ICH8 (14 replies, posted in DriverPack Mass Storage)
i don`t have onchip sata device , i have ide device, and under ide device i have onchip serial ata settings , sata mode = sata mode /disable...currently i`m on sata mode , and i think this is the sata- ide emulation , if i chose sata mode = disable, reboot pc ,no harddisk found , controller not found , ahci bios not installed...and another thing ,in bios when sata mode = sata mode , it shows 4 sata channels, when i chose sata mode = disable , it shows 2 channels.why is that ?i have the latest bios update.i think putting sata mode = disable is the AHCI mode
on a old matrix manager txt i found this line
[iaStor_Service_Inst]
DisplayName = %*PNP0600.DeviceDesc%
ServiceType = %SERVICE_KERNEL_DRIVER%
StartType = %SERVICE_BOOT_START%
ErrorControl = %SERVICE_ERROR_NORMAL%

i understand that cc_0106 is when you are allready in ahci mode in xp..0101 means ide is what i have now because i`m in ide emulation.
does anybody know why i have 2 controllers ?2 port and 4 port ?

quote from wikipedia "IDE emulation in the BIOS settings if it's available (usually labelled COMPATIBILITY or ACPI)." acpi ?i have acpi but that stands for power management
