Boot Priority Problem ( ? )

[Ch1ldo]

Greetings Everyone,First time posting here.

Recently i tried swapping from IDE to AHCI without doing a clean windows installation using a guide found here.My system hangs at Loading operating system.Anyway that is not my problem
I reverted to IDE from the bios but my problem is that unless i set USB-CDrom as a the primary Boot device and have my Win7 cd inside,windows won't load and i am stuck again at Loading Operating system ..
Not much of a problem but the usb cd drive is abit noisy and anyway i don't think it is normal to be unable to boot otherwise.

I presume you modified the registry keys to try and use AHCI did you change them back once reverting to IDE boot

Turns out the the HD Boot Priority was changed from my SSD to an external USB one i have,when i swapped to AHCI in the bios.All is well now,thanks for the help
