AHCI enable on Asus EeePC 1002HA - puhlease....

[subliminal12nv]

G'day,

I recently installed a 250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD into my ASUS EeePC 1002HA and ran the Samsung Magician software - which informed me that AHCI is disabled for SSD and that the system must boot in AHCI mode for best performance.

However, the standard BIOS Version 1004 does not have the option to select AHCI....

CPU & Chipset are Intel Atom N280 & Intel 945GSE / ICH7-M, which should support AHCI from what I have read in this forum.

I have been following similar threads on this site where AHCI was expertly exposed for the 1000HE amongst other Eee PC's and would be extremely grateful if a BIOS modding guru could show me the way to enlightenment....

Also interested in possible BIOS overclocking mods that may be available for the 1002HA - I have found an option using SetFSB but I reckon a BIOS mod would be superior.

Great website and thanks to all who take the time to read this thread....

Cheers,

G
