The problem with this is that when i had achi mode turned on, Windows could not detect my traidiotnal HDD's i had to use IDE mode for all drives to be detected..Im having the same issue where my SSD is bing defragmented and i cant seem to disable this feature, any suggestions?
Something is wrong in your BIOS settings, then blaquee. You have an Intel chipset board. Windows 7 recognizes SATA drives on controllers set to AHCI on Intel chipset boards...no drivers should be needed. usually, a person has your error when they make a Windows 7 disc with Vlite or something like it. The solution should be simple, though. Set the controller to AHCI, and then load the SATA controller drivers from Intel.com during the Windows 7 setup.
You need to turn ACHI on in Windows first then turn it on in Bios.
Here> AHCI : Enable in Windows 7 / Vista
