Well honestly I actually don't but I kinda read up on it. Supposedly it doesn't make a difference for me because I'm using a standard hard drive right? AHCI is recommended for SSDs? There's not much of an advantage or anything I think. I actually did have backups on my external hard disk but...

Ok awesome I'll do this in a day or two and report back because I don't have any backups of my files. Once I get a new external hard drive I'm going to backup and then do this. Thanks so much for helping out I'll let you know soon.

So chkdsk finished too and I ran the FixIt tool you provided but still I can't boot using AHCI. I can boot using IDE though perfectly Posted from Anandtech.com App for Android

I ran SFC and it said it found some corrupt files but it couldn't fix it. Chkdsk is still running its taking a long time to finish up. Posted from Anandtech.com App for Android

Ok I'm just running the SFC now I'll let you know if I can boot using AHCI.

Unfortunately I couldn't try connecting it to another PC but I disconnected the HDD and then it let me get into BIOS. I then changed the SATA config from AHCI to IDE and I was finally able too boot up completely and able to access all my files. So now should I continue with this or try to get...

Ok I'll try connecting and ill let you know what happens.

What will happen if I plug in the 1TB HDD to another PC? Can I do anything from there?

But my files will still be intact? Yes I did use the free one and installed it to the default directory C: and I don't...

So I did what you said but I'm getting the same screen saying "serial ata ahci bios and two dots appear and below that it says Controller Bus#00, Device#1F, Function#02 : 06 Ports, 02 Devices And then a cursor keeps blinking forever. But I could access BIOS without the HDD connected.

Thanks for replying and I unplugged the HDD and I'm able to get into BIOS. Now should I do next? Sorry I'm kind of a noob at this. Should I reinstall the battery?

I tried installing Win 8 and I needed to re-size the C: partition so I used MiniTool Partition Wizard to re-size it. It said it needed to reboot and then it re-sized the partition. But after trying to boot into Windows again I'm stuck at the pre-BIOS screen and I cant enter BIOS or do anything...
