    MSI P35 neo2 AHCI problems


    Hello,
    I am having problems with AHCI mode on MSI p35 neo2-fr...

    This motherboard has:
    SATAII controller integrated in ICH9R and Marvell® 88SE6111 chipset
    - Supports four SATAII ports and two eSATA ports by ICH9R.
    - Supports one SATAII port by 88SE6111.

    I will try to explain whats going on. Everything works great when I connect 1 HDD to one SATAII port by 88SE6111. Computer starts, OS boots up.
    When I connect HDD to one of SATAII ports by ICH9R, PC starts to act weird. It boots up fine at first try, but if I restart pc or turn it off, it freezes at motherboard boot picture or it gives "overclocking error" or pc goes in restart loop. Same story if I connect SATA DVD Drive (while having hdd on working 88SE6111 port).

    BIOS version is outdated a bit, but i'm leaving update as a last resort (i'm afraid to kill mb) ver. is 1.3

    My hardware:
    1. Hitachi HDS721010CLA332 ATA Device 1TB (Windows 7)
    2. SAMSUNG HD501LJ ATA Device 500GB (Mac 10.6)
    3. ASUS DVD drive

    What did I do wrong?
    Thanks in advance
