I have successfully made a reg fix for the ICH7M (Mobile) chipset on FSC E8110 laptop. It may work for other ICH7M platforms as well but no guarantee. I used the Matrix Storage drivers from Fujitsu-Siemens, version 5.5.0.1035.

Just follow the instructions in the first post but use the below text instead.

This has been tried for AHCI only as my computer does not support RAID.

Start Notepad and copy the following lines:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

Save as ICH7M.reg and use this file.
