15-G092SA
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi. Today i bought a Kingston A400 240GB SSD for my HP 15-G092SA. My problem is that I can't find how to enable AHCI, i dont' have that option in BIOS, I updated it 5 minutes ago to F.48. How to enable  it? I want my SSD to be more faster, now I can't see a bigger difference.

@Denis04 Welcome to HP Community!

 

I understand that you would like to enable the AHCI mode.

 

I have a few steps to help you out:

  1. Right-click the Windows Start Menu. Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
    1. If you don’t see Command Prompt listed, it’s because you have already been updated to a later version of Windows.  If so, use this method instead to get to the Command Prompt:
      1. Click the Start Button and type cmd
      2. Right-click the result and select Run as administrator
  2. Type this command and press ENTER: bcdedit /set {current} safeboot minimal
    1. If this command does not work for you, try bcdedit /set safeboot minimal
  3. Restart the computer and enter BIOS Setup (the key to press varies between systems).
  4. Change the SATA Operation mode to AHCI from either IDE or RAID (again, the language varies).
  5. Save changes and exit Setup and Windows will automatically boot to Safe Mode.
  6. Right-click the Windows Start Menu once more. Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
  7. Type this command and press ENTER: bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot
    1. If you had to try the alternate command above, you will likely need to do so here also: bcdedit /deletevalue safeboot
  8. Reboot once more and Windows will automatically start with AHCI drivers enabled.

Thank you for posting back.

 

Make sure you are running the most current BIOS (0601). That may enable the features to configure the SATA mode.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

I installed it 1 week ago

Thank you for posting back. 

 

The last thing I can suggest trying is a restore back to the factory. Performing an HP system recovery (Windows ) While doing the recovery there is an option to backup your personal files. If you have not previously done one now is a good time. 


Restoring Files that were Backed Up Using HP Recovery Manager (Windows )You can also contact HP support for assistance. 

 

The HP Cloud Recovery Tool allows you to download recovery software to a USB drive. You can use the downloaded recovery image file in order to install the Windows operating system. 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
