    Hey
    Im trying to upgrade my hdd to a ssd on my laptop

    i have the serial number etc and i can download the drivers from samsung.

    I just cant get the AHCI drivers for the ssd. The ssd recognises in the bios but after the first windows screen it doesnt recognise the ssd/hdd storage so im unable to install

    Anyone know where i can get the actual drivers, the ones on samsung are .exe

    also - its a sata 3 ssd (corsair force 120gb) but even if i enable sata3 and ahci in the bios it still doesnt recognise the drive in stage two ofg installing windows 7

    id appreciate any help or replies
