Okay, I went through the steps you provided Jaquith, and it looks like it worked! My system in now immediately recognizing the external drives as soon as I turn them on. No stability issues yet, but I'll have to run some tests and play a few video games to get a better idea of where that stands...

Thanks for the reply jaquith. I guess I need to streamline my inquiry just a bit. In essence, I want to enable AHCI- via the registry- only for the GSATA controller while leaving IDE enabled for the primary SATA ports. As far as I have been able to tell, the registry only supports turning on...

I own two external Cavalry hard drives that I use for my media backups, but Vista 64 does not recognize them when I power them up due to the fact that AHCI is not enabled for my system. The only way for the drives to show up is to manually search for them in the Device Manager or to leave them...

"In our view, Apple is one of the few companies in the world that will be able to offer consumers a broad digital media ecosystem with iTunes, iBooks and the App Store" You can't truly offer a "broad digital media ecosystem" with the gates closed, you dumbass.

taybThe shift will move back to the illogical "games are too expensive" and we'll deal with the whining piraters whining about game prices all the time again. There's nothing illogical about that argument. $60 is too expensive. As long as losers like you are willing to pay that much for games...

Games Workshop called and it wants its entire IP back from Blizzard.

Here's a story. One Christmas season, there was a boy who wanted to enter a Tom's Hardware contest, but was required to sign up for a Facebook account in order to do so. The boy was sad, but then he realized that Tom's was only interested in marketing Facebook to its users, and entering the...
