Installing Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit With AHCI

[Auld Bint]

Hi,

Can anyone please advise me if I need to reinstall my Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit O/S if I wish to use the AHCI setting for SATA disks?

I installed the O/S with the BIOS setting for SATA at ATA then changed it in the BIOS after install. Unfortunately, the PC will not boot with it set to AHCI for SATA but changing it back to ATA gets it to boot.

I thought that from Vista onwards the SATA setting in the BIOS could be changed after the O/S had been installed, perhaps not ?
