Drivers Cypress Hard Disk Controller

Q: 'Recently, I was using my Mac and suddenly the Mac's Raid controller stopped recognizing the hard drive. I don't know what happened that the Raid controller is not recognizing drives. I'm unable to get a clue about the issue. All I know is that all my data on the drive is. The disk controller (or 'hard disk controller') is the circuit which allows the CPU to communicate with a hard disk, floppy disk or other kind of disk drive. Early disk controllers were identified by their storage methods and data encoding. They were typically implemented on a separate controller card. Modified frequency modulation (MFM) controllers were the most common type in small computers. If you installed drivers for your SATA/RAID controller, then you will need to add drivers during WinPE creation or after you load in WinPE environment (Load Drivers Wizard). You cannot add drivers to Linux based recovery media because it is hard-coded for hardware support. You can read more about adding drivers at different steps in this article.

“I have a desktop that I added PCI based raid controller card as well. The BIOS displays the card and I was able to configure Raid 1 without any issue. But when I try to install Windows I got an error message “Windows cannot be installed to disk. This system hardware may not support booting to a disk. Ensure the disk controller is enabled in the computer’s BIOS Menu.”

So, could you please help me to fix the issue of how to enable the disk controller in the computer bios menu? Your help would be greatly appreciated.”

There are multiple ways to enable AHCI mode for SATA on PC where Windows is already installed, and Windows that normally run after this operation. Please have a look on steps to solve your query on how to enable disk controller in bios menu windows 10:

  • First of all, run the Registry Editor
  • For this, press Windows + R and type regedit in the command line box
  • Go to this section HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Services iaStorV
  • Double-click on Start icon and set its value to zero (0)
  • In the upcoming section, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Services iaStorAV StartOverride set zero value for element 0
  • In this section, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Services storahci set some values to zero for Start element.
  • In the next subsection, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Services storahci StartOverride set zero value for element 0.
  • In this case, there is nothing to be seen, but you can see, if AHCI may not be enabled yet.
  • Close the Registry Editor
  • Restart the system and go to BIOS or UEFI. For the first time after a restart, it is always better to boot Windows in safe mode
  • In BIOS or UEFI, find SATA settings to choose the particular mode for memory devices. Switch all of them to AHCI, save settings and restart the PC
  • After restarting, Windows can start the installation of SATA drivers, and when it gets over, it will ask for another restart. To do so, users will enable the AHCI mode in Windows. (If the above method does not work properly, here is another solution. To initiate with, if users have problems with booting Windows in AHCI mode, return to IDE and restart the desktop, After doing this:)
  • Start the Command promptas an Administrator
  • Type “bcdedit /set {current} safeboot minimal” in the command prompt and press Enter key
  • After getting a message that the operation successfully completed, restart the computer system
  • Before booting the system, enable the disk controller in BIOS or UEFI using the above method and save the settings
  • The PC will only boot up in safe mode and install all required drivers.
  • Again, launch Command prompt as Administrator and type in bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot
  • Once the command is executed, restart the PC again. This time, Windows needs to boot with AHCI enabled and without any restrictions.

Well, these instructions can theoretically result in unintended consequences like the inability to start the operating system. Moreover, this method requires technical skills and knowledge to accomplish the task. Here you have got the solution for your query How do I enable disk’s controller in the BIOS menu?
