How To: IDE to AHCI in CMD

[watrhous]

I need to know how to change from IDE to AHCI in cmd prompt.

I just cloned a customers old WIN7 drive for his new WIN10 machine and the only option in bios is AHCI.

I have had much success cloning to new box/builds but i have yet to see a bios with only the AHCI option. Please help...!

There are ways to change reg keys via command line however may need to load the regristry hive depending on how you are accessing it via command line.
