splits Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Did you look for AHCI in your boards settings? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/125858-help-me-please-urgent/#findComment-889653 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Waters Posted September 13, 2008 Author Share Posted September 13, 2008 no it doesn't support it can i unload this sata patch using a darwin boot command or something so i can get into the system?

splits Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I'm not really familiar with the patch you're talking about tbh. :/ If it's just a driver, then really if the hardware isn't there it shouldn't affect it as far as the drive controllers go, but again I am not really familiar with it. You could try booting with "-x" and see if you can get into your system that way.
