NB300 unable to set to AHCI mode for SSD drive

Hi,
I have a Toshiba NB300 netbook, running Windows 8 Pro 32 bit, very happy with it!
I have a Corsair Force 3 112GB SSD drive installed, and everything seems to be running very nicely!
Reading up on SSD drives I see that for best performance I should be running the SSD in AHCI mode.
So I went to the Setup menu on start up and changed from Compatibility mode to AHCI.
I've actually tried this a few times, always with the same result, failure!
When the system attempts to boot I get a message saying a problem was encountered, and that
the sytem is trying to gather information.
The only solution is to go back into setup and reset to Compatibility mode.
The BIOS is up to date, and I just can't think of any way to resolve the issue.
I really would like to get the best performance I can on this net book.
I have a screen grab of the SSD drive details from Speccy, but I can't see a way of attaching it?
If any one can advise me on how to get AHCI mode up and going I would really appreciate it!
Thanks
Chris

Unfortunately on this forum we dont have reports about SSD usage on NBs. I have NB520 and I would like to use SSD to but until now I didnt find the right one.
As far as I know by default BIOS is set to AHCI mode. Which OS have you installed? Original one that you got with your notebook or your own version? Have you installed Intels storage manager from Toshiba download page?

  • Envy Beats 15-1055se - How to enable AHCI mode for SSD

    How can i enable the AHCI mode for the envy 15-1055se. I tried to find this option in the bios, but its not there. I already installed an SSD and the OS (Windows 7 home Premium). Im using Samsung EVO 250gb.

    That can be done by using Windows  Regedit feature.  It is imperative that you make a copy of the registry before you commit to the change.
    Use regedit with extreme care. All changes that you make take place instantly. That is why it is critial to have made a copy . 
    What is the installed operating system?

  • MSI 870-C45 AHCI Mode for SSD

    Hi there,
    Just bought one of these boards and would like to check if i'm doing anything wrong.
    I need to install W7 on my SSD, which goes perfectly with default bios options, but if i change to AHCI (Integrated Peripherals > On Chip Serial ATA > Raid Mode > AHCI) i can then no longer install on the SSD. I get the "Windows cannot be installed to this disk, your computer hardware may not support booting"... blah blah!
    So, is there a different AHCI setting? Do i need an AHCI driver during install? I'm stumped, any info would be greatly appreciated!
    Dex

    I have the same problem with the same motherboard, i cannot install using AHCI.
    What is the source of this problem and how can i fix it?
    To answer the second poster's question, performance!

  • Z77A-GD65 - Secondary HDD won't spin down when set to AHCI mode

    Hi, I have an issue with my secondary WD 1TB Caviar Blue drive which is used for Game installations, movies and music.
    For some reason, when the Intel SATA controller is set to AHCI, no matter what's set in the Power Options under "Turn off hard disk after", it never spins down, it doesn't seem to affect it. I have absolutely made sure that no apps or processes are running from it. It only contains Games, Movies and Music.
    I have even tried leaving the computer on overnight and accessed the disk on the morning and there is no spin up sound.
    My board is an MSI Z77A-GD65, my friend, who has the exact same board and the exact dame drive as me doesn't experience this issue, on his computer, after inactivity, you access the drive and you can hear it spin up.
    I moved the HDD to the external Asmedia SATA controller on the board and set it to IDE and it works perfectly.
    So now there are several questions:
    1. Why won't it spin down when set to AHCI mode?
    2. Is it critical for a mechanical HDD to be set to AHCI if it mostly contains music, movies and game installations? Will I lose out on a lot of sped if I set it IDE?
    Thanks

    The spinners (mechanical HDDs) don't even reach the SATA II bandwidth.
    Not even close.
    On the other hand, AHCI does not improve the performances on them.
    So if you really need AHCI, use a SATA II port and see how it goes.
    If that doesn't help, remove any overclocking (load the BIOS default settings) and reinstall the Intel RST driver
    (for SATA RAID and AHCI mode):
    http://www.msi.com/product/mb/Z77A-GD65.html#/?div=Driver&os=Win7%2064
    Then... why HDD's SATA 3.0 are manufactured? 
    I'm having a similiar issue. When I try to set ahci on the Asmedia controller (I've got a WD 1TB 3,0 connected to) my system does not boot up. I can only see a black screen.
    Just saying that the WD HDD is only for data, music, etc. There isn't any SO running on it.

  • Set up binary mode for backup over FTP

    Hello!
    I am about to set up the backup for Oracle DB from Tcode DB13.
    My SAP systems are installed on Windows (64 Bit).
    The backup data should be saved on the Unix-Samba share via FTP.
    If I execute DB-Backup the backup is successful, BUT:
    The file names are very strange e.g. <i>S3FV1~6</i>
    The second problem is that the files will be written to the wrong directory
    (I have set the path to "sap/backup" and the files will be written to "sap").
    My question is:
    I have heared about <b>“binary mode”</b> during backup procedure…  <b>With which parameters in init<DBSID>.sap can I set up binary mode for the backup?</b>
    <b>Which other FTP-server-parameters or settings in file init<DBSID>.sap are responsible for this issue?</b>
    Thank you very much

    Hi,
    this program may help:
    http://www.bombich.com/software/ccc.html (You need the older version for Panther)
    You can use it to clone your internal HDD to your external one, and then clone your external one to your internal one after you erase (and write zeros to ensure everything is gone) using Disk utility (I can't vouch for the actual security of this, but 'apparently' if you do the highest setting it will be secure) after booting from an OS X DVD. This is depends on the drive having the ability to boot, however.
    After you run Cabon Copy Cloner/Clone your HDD see if you can boot from the drive. (Hold option at startup). Unless there are issues with the specific drive model, your eMac should be able to boot from all FireWire devices.
    I'm not sure where Tiger comes into this, however. (As you mention later in your post). The way I understand, you basically just want to erase zeros on your HDD and boot from it just as you acquired it (hence the cloning/re-cloning of the internal HDD).
    Good Luck!

  • Set different authentication mode for OWA (without 2 ip address)

    hi
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/fda18a29-a484-4ed5-903b-aa06e8f7a032/set-different-authentication-mode-for-owa?forum=exchangesvrclients
    Step 1: IP Address
    Obtain a second IP address and add it to the NIC of your server.
    Step 2: DNS
    Add a DNS entry for That secondary IP address for the name we will want to use in the new FBA OWA Web site. I have chosen "testwebmail." Be sure there is a valid SSL certificate (recommended to have UC or SAN SSL certs) on the server Which has the
    new name "testwebmail" that will be used in the certificate.
    Step 3: New Web Site
    Create a new web site in IIS on the Client Access Server and bind it to the new IP address used in step 1.
    Step 4: Adding Exchange Virtual Directories
    The web site has been created and bound to the secondary IP address of our server. Also the DNS record That will be used to access the OWA FBA new page was added to DNS. The next step is to go into EMS and begin adding our virtual directories for OWA and ECP.
    Login to the Exchange server and open the Exchange Management Shell. Then run Get-Get-OWAVirtualDirectory and ECPVirtualDirectory to see the default OWA and ECP directories.
    New-OWAVirtualDirectory -WebSiteName FBA -InternalUrl https://url/owa
    New-ECPVirtualDirectory -WebSiteName FBA -InternalUrl https://url/ecp
    Step 5: Configure the Virtual Directories
    To configure the virtual directories we will disable FBA on the Default Web Site OWA and ECP virtual directories
    New-OWAVirtualDirectory -WebSiteName "FBA"
    Enable the Basic authentication via running the following command:
    Set-OWAVirtualDirectory -Identity "yourservername\owa (FBA)" -BasicAuthentication $true
    Set-OWAVirtualDirectory -Identity "OWA (Default Web Site)" -WindowsAuthentication $true -BasicAuthentication $false  -FormsBasedAuthentication $true
    Step 6: iisreset
    I want to set this settings; but I don't have 2 ip address and I want to set whit one ip address.
    can please tell me how can set this settings with one ip address?
    and please tell me about publishing whit tmg.
    thanks

    Hi,
    Based on my research on Host Header, it seems using Host Header can achive your goal.
    More details on Host Headers:
    1. Host headers let you assign more than one site to a
    single IP address on a Web server.
    2. To host more than one Web site on a Web server, you can assign a unique IP address to each Web site, designate a non-standard TCP port number for a Web site,
    or use host headers. Of the three methods, it is more common to use host headers than to assign unique IP addresses to Web sites or to use non-standard TCP port numbers.
    Configure a Host Header for a Web Site (IIS 7)
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753195(v=ws.10).aspx
    Please correct me if there is anything misunderstand.
    However, Microsoft recommends creating the second OWA/ECP virtual directories in a new IIS web site with a different IP address, and using it for internal client access.

  • Unable to set the ip address for hosted network client after creating WIFI hotspot

    Original Title: INTERNET CONNECTIVITY PROBLEM WITH MY LAPTOP WIFI HOTSPOT
    HI all
    I am able to use internet connection from my lap hotspot, when the internet source is Public or private wifi.
    so I know the cmd window commands for hotspot and settings of client(sharing to hosted network client, assigning IP address etc.,)
    but the problem I am facing is slight different
    I am using my cdma wireless broadband datacard as my source internet connection(Reliance netconnect +)
    when I try to create hotspot for this, as usual I am able to create the hotspot and able to share the internet to hostednework client.
    but I am unable to set the ip address for hosted network client, if I try to set ip 192.169.137.1 and 255.255.255.0
    as soon as I close the window, the ip address also disappears
    when connect my android phone to that hotspot, it is able to connect but there is no internet connectivity.
    when I check the hostednetwork client for packet transmission, both sent and received packet is happening., I mean transmitting
    so what cause the failure in internet connectivity but success in hotspot connectivity?
    check the screen shots...
    can u help me..
    its little complicated

    Hi,
    Please make sure the Ad hoc connection IP adress is at the same range with your local connection. In addition, how about recreate the ad hoc connection for test, please have a try.
    If problem persists, please use Network troubleshooter in Action Center to fix this problem for test.

  • Unable to enable AHCI mode for Satelite L350-171

    HI,
    I recently installed XP on my laptop which previously had VIsta on it. The installation was successful and I managed to install all the drivers. The only problem I have now is not being able to enable AHCI in the BIOS without the laptop restarting. I installed the ICH9 SATA drivers and I can see them on the hardware device page. I was wondering if anyone else has had these problems, I'm not sure whether this has affected my laptop because occasionally I get the blue screen of death.
    If you require any other information please let me know.
    Thank you
    Regards Kevin

    could you please elaborate on the process of installing the sata drivers, as far as i know when change the bios to ahci mode when loading WXP it just blues screens straight away. am i suppose to set it to hci then install a clean WXP?
    another problem i have found is that my time on the WXP keeps reseting is this due to the ahci drivers?

  • Unable to set the selected value for a ADF LOV

    Hi,
    I am developing an application using jdeveloper 10.1.3 and Struts.
    I have created a ADF LOV on my JSP Page as given below:
    <html:select property="lob" onchange="javascript:selectLOB(this.form)">
    <html:optionsCollection label="prompt" value="index" property="lob.displayData"/>
    </html:select>
    When i submit the form, i am able to get the value of the selected Value in the List.
    JUCtrlListBinding listBinding = (JUCtrlListBinding) formBean.get("Lob");
    Row r = (Row) listBinding.getSelectedValue();
    String SoLob = (String) r.getAttribute("LobLob");
    But i am unable to set the selected value back in the list when i return to the form again.
    I tried the following:
    int x = listBinding.getSelectedIndex();
    listBinding.setSelectedIndex(x);
    It would be really helpful if some one could let me know what needs to be done.
    Thanks,

    Gyan,
    I tried with the code you suggest , its trying to set the value of a field, but my requirement is to change the property for
    "Rendered" on the field so that based on search parameters we can hide result table column.
    After searching online, I modified the controller code as follows
    1.Created a new transient attribute (Testrender) with type "Boolean" and always updateable.
    2.changed the "Rendered" property value on the field I want to hide as ${oa.PoSearchVO1.Testrender}.
    3. Modified the controller code as follows :
            OAApplicationModule am = pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
            OAViewObject testvo = (OAViewObject)am.findViewObject("PoSearchVO1");
            OADBTransaction txn = am.getOADBTransaction();
            if (testvo != null)
              OARow row = (OARow)testvo.first();
                if (a.equalsIgnoreCase("Approved"))
                     row.setAttribute("Testrender", Boolean.FALSE);
                else
                     row.setAttribute("Testrender", Boolean.TRUE);
            } But now when i run the page and populate the search field and click "Go" its hiding the field but throwing the following error and the search results are also bad.
    Its using only the value of one search parameter but not the second one .
    The search cannot be executed because the table has pending changes that would be lost. I think the vo is getting dirty when I update the transient attribute value. So I used txn.rollback ,then search is working fine but its not hiding the field.
    So can you please let me know how to proceed from here ?

  • Equium - How to set quiet mode for CD drive?

    Hi I've got Toshiba notebook Equium series and recently I had to reinstall my Windows Vista.
    And now my CD-ROM is very noisy when read data from CD and the whole notebook is shaking.
    I remember that when I both it there was some option to put it in quite mode.
    I've download some firmware from this site but it was for different CD-ROM.
    So I'll be very grateful if some one tells me how to make it quite again.
    The CD-ROM is MAT****A DVD-RAM UJ-850S

    Hi!
    I dont know which notebook you have but on the Toshiba European website you can download the Acoustic Silencer.

  • Unable to set working directory (-2147024832) for some app installs

    I've found several drivers on a Dell Laptop that don't play well with others in MDT 2012, so I started making an application install package for them instead.  Most of them fail with an "unable to set working directory" error.  I checked
    the app install logs and they don't really make any sense to me.  I know the process as a whole works, because I can install .Net 4.0 runtimes without any problems using the same method.  The important bits of the ZTI App log are below.  Would
    be for any guidance on this, as I'm stumped and none of the searches on the exact errors are of much help.
    A sample error returned in the wizard is:

    Why can't it find it or set the working directory, especially when it's already validated that it's there?  
    --smthng

    I'm not familiar with how Dell does their client side software, but for the server-side software (my area of expertise), I've always done something like the following:
    I recommend running every application install in a VBScript/Powershell wrapper.  You get logging for the application back on your SLShare as well as its cleaner (you can replace Drivers A05 with A06 by changing the script, rather than editing the application
    in MDT).
    sApplicationName = "Dell 12G Chipset"
    oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": Starting " & sApplicationName & " installation", LogTypeInfo
    '//Set Destination Folder
    sDestFolder = "c:\temp\"
    '//Set Source Install Directory
    sSourceDir = oUtility.ScriptDir
    sSourceDir = sSourceDir & "\Source"
    '//Check that folder exists, if not, create it.
    oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": Check that " & sDestFolder & " exists.", LogTypeInfo
    if not oFSO.FolderExists (sDestFolder) then
    oFSO.CreateFolder sDestFolder
    End If
    '//Copy folder from MDT share to C:\Temp
    oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": Copy from " & sSourceDir & " to " & sDestFolder, LogTypeInfo
    oFSO.CopyFolder sSourceDir, sDestFolder
    '//Sleep for 2 seconds to allow copy to finish
    wscript.sleep 2000
    sFile = sDestFolder & "Source\setup.exe"
    '// Check if file/folder exists
    If not oFSO.FileExists(sFile) then
    oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": " & sFile & " was not found, unable to install " & sApplicationName & "", LogTypeError
    ZTIProcess = Failure
    Exit Function
    End if
    '// Create log entry to show file being run
    oLogging.CreateEntry "" & sFile & " -s", LogTypeInfo
    iRetVal = oUtility.RunWithHeartbeat("" & sFile & " -s")
    if (iRetVal = 0) or (iRetVal = 3010) then
    ZTIProcess = Success
    Else
    ZTIProcess = Failure
    End If
    wscript.sleep 15000
    '// Disable Zone Checks
    oEnv("SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS") = 1
    '//Folder Cleanup
    oFSO.DeleteFolder sDestFolder & "Source"
    I always copy any drivers that are installed after the fact (everything for me other than SAS/NIC drivers) to the C:\Temp as it can break.  I always update my NIC drivers during the build to the latest Dell software using their packs.  I try to
    not mess with my boot image unless I'm adding a new model that is not supported by the built-in drivers.

  • Unable to set up connection factory for stand-alone resource adapter

    I'm testing out JCA 1.5 in OC4J P4, and I try to register a resource apapter by configuring oc4j-ra.xml like this:
    <connector-factory location="MySomething" connector-name="Something">
    However, I get the following error:
    05/09/28 17:14:24 Notification ==> Warning. Unable to set up connection factory
    to location MySomething for a resource adapter deployed as stand-alone.
    Is this a bug, or just me?
    Would appreciate it if someone knew what was wrong.
    Regards
    -am

    Looks like you need to tell us more...
    How is your adapter packaged?
    Which files are included (deployment descriptors, etc)?

  • How do I set a landscape mode for my print out with the CNIreport?

    I am using CNIReport and I was wondering how to set a landscape mode when printting?

    There is a property of the CNiReport object called "Orientation". You just set that property to Landscape using the enumeration provided in the CNiReport class. Here is an example with the full path to the enumeration value:
    m_report.SetOrientation(NI::CNiReport::NiReportsPa​geOrientation::NiReportsLandscape); //m_report is the CNiReport object

  • NB 100, cannot enable AHCI mode. Official driver won't install. help plz!!!

    Hi,
    Can someone please tell me how can I enable AHCI mode after re-installing Windows XP Pro on the NB 100? I try to install the official "storage manager drivers" but windows tells me that the machine does not meet the requirements.
    Please help

    thanks for the reply. The article you've linked seems to be for moving a system disk to another computer and the solutions requires physical access to the hard drive + 2 computers??
    Also can you please tell me is it true that there aren't much performance differences between Compatibility Mode and AHCI?

  • HP 3D DriveGuard Needed or Recommende​d for SSD Drive?

    I recently replaced the standard drive on my HP 2730p with an Intel SSD X-18. I did a clean install and the driver for the HP 3D DriveGuard shows missingof course so my question is - do I need or should I install this driver if I have an SSD in my laptop now?
    Many thanks.
    This question was solved.

    It is not needed.
    There are no platters and read/wrire heads to worry about in a Solid State hard disk. The are no moving parts so no heads to get jogged or bumped which could cause data loss. With an SSD drive it is also recommended to avoid defragmenting. Your new drive is cutting edge technology.
