Enabling AHCI when Vista is already installed...

    Long story short, in order to get Ubuntu running on my pc I need to go into the bios and enable AHCI mode instead of IDE for my sata drives. Doing this causes windows to bluescreen and restart the pc a few seconds after the vista loading bar appears.
    Any ideas on how to get around this without reinstalling Vista?

    Chipset drivers etc are all up to date

    /edit
    AHCI, not ACHI:o

    Use a pci ide card ? then leave ACHI turned off for vista and use the crd with ACHI support. Might work ?

    Seems a little extreme though... I might be better off just reinstalling windows I guess
