Yes there is. Boot in IDE mode, and copy the following into notepad, and save as a .reg file. Then double click on it, and okay it to install.
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\msahci]
"Start"=dword:00000000
Reboot (important!), and set AHCI mode (important! must be done before trying to install the performance driver).
Then download and install (or download beforehand) the Intel AHCI performance driver:
http://www.station-drivers.com/telec...ivers.com).exe
(its also for RAID etc).
Its on http://www.station-drivers.com/page/intel%20raid.htm
Don't download the 11.x series yet, they're alpha (pre-beta) and unstable. The 11.0.x is somewhat stable (seemingly) but are several months older than the 10.8's, which seem to work better anyway (they're the proper Intel released ones).
Reboot.

This does not work on XP. You must reinstall everything from scratch if you want AHCI.
