Steve,
On my new Asus P8V77-Vpro m/b's that I am using to move to i5
processors, I notice that it seems the BIOS forces AHCI, or maybe Asus just
defaulted this setting. In any case, this m/b runs like a raped ape!
Very happy with it, and, its' EUFI BIOS is to die for with its' active
mouse.
Goodbye Award, Phoenix, and A??.
Good luck,
Duncan

I suppose this is possible. When I first booted up the board, I was
unfamiliar with the delays. Apparently the Hero polls all the USB
devices on boot, so there is a long delay after the splash screen
(mouse, keyboard, 2 USB hard drives, printer, scanner, 2 Midi
Keyboards), so the screen goes black for a long time. The first time,
I waited a few seconds, screen was still black and hit reset.
Possible it could have happened then.

If you remember a few weeks ago, I installed an Asus Maximus VII
Hero MB and moved over the SSD from the old system. I had to put
the Hero into IDE mode to get the system to come up. Now a couple
of weeks later, I'm looking at moving to AHCI and found instructions
on the net. HOWEVER, when I went into the BIOS, the Hero is already
in AHCI mode. I hadn't changed it. I find this a bit weird. It's
like the BIOS and Windows worked together to put in AHCI mode.
Ever heard of this before?
No, once switched, I've never seen it switch back. Maybe the BIOS
reset on a failed boot?
