In this video, Mike from TechneekTV.com shows you how to enable AHCI post-installation of Windows 7/Vista.

Normally enabling AHCI in the BIOS without preparing Windows beforehand will cause a Blue Screen of Death to occur when you are rebooting your computer. Follow these steps and you'll have AHCI enabled safely and quickly.

Why would you want to use AHCI? For these benefits:
-Native Command Queing: More efficient hard drive usage.
-Ability to HotSwap: Hard drives can be removed without powering down the PC.
-RAID Support: The PC will be able to utilize a RAID setup.
-TRIM Support for Solid State Disks: SSD's will utilize a TRIM algorithm to increase their speed and longevity.
-Better power efficiency.
