Andrey, Arnaud, I'm using a HP 6715b laptop with the same chipset. Unfortunately there's no "enable AHCI" option in the BIOS setup and with earlier FreeBSD versions, the driver identified this chip as plain IDE. I needed to patch my kernel with a patch provided by Coleman Kane. With recent versions (new ATA code in 7-STABLE) I don't need that ata patch anymore and the kernel identifies this correctly as AHCI compliant out of the box but the hardware has another problem: ACPI reports a wrong address for the pcm device so it overlaps with memory resources of the sata chip. Using a patch also provided by Coleman, the resources of the pcm device are remapped to free the address space of the sata controller. I'm wondering if this is the same or similar problem with the MSI system? A `devinfo -rv' may show this. Anyway, these lines raises the suggestion to look out for a BIOS update: > ACPI APIC Table: <090307 APIC1050> > acpi0: reservation of fee00000, 1000 (3) failed > acpi0: reservation of ffb80000, 80000 (3) failed > acpi0: reservation of fff00000, 100000 (3) failed > acpi0: reservation of 0, a0000 (3) failed > acpi0: reservation of 100000, 1df00000 (3) failed > ACPI HPET table warning: Sequence is non-zero (2) Volker
