AHCI (Advanced Host controller) makes NCQ (Native Command Queing) along with hot-plugging or hot swapping through SATA Serial-ATA host controllers possible; Vista was the first to offer this feature. The issue with AHCI is it needs to be enabled in the BIOS prior to OS installation; doing so after you have installed the OS will disable the PC. The reason why Windows disables the AHCI drivers not needed during installation.


I would suggest you to enable AHCI after you have installed the OS if you didn't already have AHCI enable in the BIOS when you installed the OS.
