    Well tried today,but had no luck! I made the necessary changes in BIOS and switched to AHCI but notice during boot up this message:Auto detecting SataII.1 Ide hard disk Sata1 AHCI Port 0 device error. I continued the boot up got to the loading windows setting NOTHING! I left it for an hour nothing! So I swiched back the bios setting to IDE, Windows loads to the gathering info bit ask for drivers but does not recognise any.

    Advice please?
