Ahci Driver Windows 7 64 Bit

What this is about This is about the installation of AHCI drivers to SATA ports for Windows. AHCI drivers (Advanced Host Controller Interface klick -> for Wiki) are advanced performance drivers for the SATA controller in your Mac Pro (ICH10R chips for Nehalem - ESB2 for all others). When you go to profiler in OS X and bring up ATA you will see that your disks will all be connected by AHCI protocols. Windows natively uses legacy drivers instead of AHCI when you install it. It expects a BIOS command to select the AHCI mode. On a BIOS machine you simply use a software switch to select the configuration. On an EFI machine as the Mac, you have to manipulate the boot mechanism because the firmware has no user adjustable features.

Nov 21, 2014 - Hi: It seems that several folks are unable to find the right driver. All I can tell you is that you can try the drivers in the Packages folder from the. Win 7 64 bit problem with storage drivers AHCI etc. I got.ISO file WINDOWS 7 Ultimate SP1 x64 September 2012 and I think each time I got same problem with that drivers, not recognize disk issue.

Ulead video studio 11 upgrade. You actually edit your Master Boot Record (MBR) inside the GUID or MBR partition table with a terminal script. I will come to that later. If you are making a fresh installation of Windows from the install disk you can pre load the AHCI drivers from the floppy facility (check the download link in section 3).

In Vista and Win7 you do this from the installation window where you can format or partition drives. In XP you have to hit the F6 key in the beginning when XP starts to load from the optical disk. This tutorial is based on the instructions from Ludachris at Many thanks to him.

The shell script for the MBR patch is made by Johnsock. Also a big thank you to him. Some potential traps to avoid Some people like to use a unused ODD-SATA port for a Windows HDD or SSD.

This is possible as soon as the AHCI driver is working. In order to make the AHCI installation you need to fit the Windows drive to a standard HDD port and make the installation according to section 5. There is a bummer which may hit you if you already use a SW RAID in OS X with a pre 2009 machine. An OS X software RAID array prevents Windows from recognizing other SATA drives as internal. The installation program will tell you that you are installing to an external drive although you are setting your Windows drive properly up on one of the # 1-4 HDD bay. To work around this problem you can physically remove the RAID disks and put them away for a moment.

After installing Windows you can put the array back in and it will run without a problem again, so you need not be concerned to remove the array temporarily. To substitute for your now missing array clone OS X to a single disk before you remove your array and when you have it taken out, fit that disk. Then you do your Windows installation stuff. When you are finished with Windows you remove the single disk and refit your array. The 64-bit varieties of Vista and Win7 have 32-bit emulations installed which will allow you to run any 32-bit program. So they are much better to use.

A word of warning to 2006 and 2007 Mac Pro owners. Your machines use a 32-bit EFI. It will not be able to read Windows install DVDs with multiple images like the anytime upgrade DVDs. The 32-bit EFI boot loader freezes when you try to load an install disk with multiple images. Known workaround at this time use Jowie's tweak or a similar method to make the file variables palatable to the EFI32 boot loader. Preparations Download the Intel Matrix Storage Manager from this adress. If you run XP you also need the floppy disk facility that you find there.

The executable we will need very much later when we are practically done changing the MP to AHCI but get hold of it for now. Intel have reported that there was a Vista installation issue with their chips driver (Intel Matrixs storage) up to version 7.0. It is therefore recommended to use 8.8 now. Win7 is officially only supported by 8.9.

When you have made those downloads put the folder with the floppy facility on a USB stick or burn it on CD. If you are hell bent to use XP you will actually need floppies because XP will not let you use other means. Generally XP isn't desirable on a Mac Pro because it is only supported in 32-Bit and not in 64-Bit which will make most of your RAM (above 2 GB) memory useless. Copy the zipped file with Johnsock's shell script which is attached to this posting to your OS X drive. You have to unzip it for use. Next go to disk utility in OS X and make a list of the identifiers of your installed drives. You can right click the drive name or use the info button which tells you the internal name of each drive.
