bios reset flipped my storage mode and windows panicked

oh ive been there lol Back up first. The safe-mode method works in most cases, but if u use real RAID volumes (multiple drives), switching to AHCI will break the array, only do this with single-drive setups.

guys pls help my office machine is officially haunted

any update on this?. told my boss it would take 10 minutes. its been 3 hours

honestly just reset the settings and save yourself the pain

honestly just reset the driver and save yourself the pain. dumb question but how do i even check the power plan lmk how it goes

ok so have u checked your boot settings? mine were reset after an update good luck man!

@greta_rusty works on paper, not in real life just my 2 cents

ok so my desktop is officially haunted

15 tabs open and chrome ate all 32GB of ram again

lol this trhead is gold

came here to say exactly this hope that helps :)

:)

not gonna lie this is driving me nuts spent 3 hours on boot and im still not done. came here to say exactly this what am i doing wrong??

after switching, Device Manager should show Standard SATA AHCI Controller or Standard NVM Express Controller. the RST/RAID driver can stay installed; it just wont be used. you can remove it later via Apps or pnputil if you want. lmk how it goes

ok weird one spent all weekend on ahci and im still not done. +1 same here any ideas??

respectfully disagree, i tried that and it made windows worse... try turning off teh thermal paste first, fixed it for me

On laptops with Intel VMD/RST, check the PC maker's support page. Some models expect RST mode for features like power maangement, and switching may affect btatery life or sleep.

honestly just reset teh DNS and save yourself teh pain

dude ok update: did what @sadler said and its fine now. honestly just reset teh dirver and save yourself the pain thank u thank u thank u
