Did you change to AHCI mode before or after installing the O/S? It has to be set before the O/S is installed or else you need to: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/61869-ahci-enable-windows-7-vista.html

ok so now its working, i did a full install with ahci mode on in bios,

but shouldnt my drivers be scsi not stupid sata. I WANT MY SCSI DRIVERS BACK LIKE THEY USED TO.

actually i went to the amd website and installed optional drivers package. and it had way better updated drivers. seems like asus is done supporting this motherboard.

but what i did was downloaded from here http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/pages/integrated_win7-64.aspx#2

chipset drivers and raid drivers.
but the raid drivers on a usb flash drive.
restarted to bios.
set sata ports to raid instead of ahci.
booted my windows 7 64bit ultimate disk.
loaded the raid drivers from my usb.
installed windows.
and walla.
