    Hey there, I have a problem when installing Win 8 on an HDX 16.

    It says that it can't find any hard drives, so my first and only guess is the ICH9M.

    I ve tried installing all kinds of ICH9M AHCI drivers but it still says no drive found :-S

    Weird thing is, Win 7 installs without the need of any drivers at all! What could be wrong with Win 8?

    Thanks.
