    Have CF-52 mk2. BIOS is set to AHCI. Need to change it back to ATA or non-native mode. System has a conflict with AHCI. Any help? Already called Panasonic and BIOS maker.

    I think you are out of luck

    Desktop computers usually have the ability to change the settings in the bios, but I have not seen the same flexibility in the newer Toughbooks that use a sata drive

    I guess if it’s a software program that’s not compatible, look for upgrades to the software or you will have to downgrade your hardware or find a laptop that has that option in the bios
