So, yesterday i installed a Windows 7 64bit ultimate edition OS on my computer. And after installing 14.9 amd catalyst, (tried with 14.4 aswell), and i guess the problem is the amd's ahci driver that overwritten the ms ahci driver. After i reboot the system i stuck after the windows logo. I don't know how to get this work, since i cannot boot to windows in IDE mode, but i can boot in safe mode.
My config:
ASRock H97M Pro 4
Intel Core i7 4770
8Gb HyperX Genesis (2x4Gb 1600MhZ)
MSi R7850 2GD5
Hitachi 500Gb SATA2 HDD
I say that i've tried with 14.4, and 14.9 aswell.

If your system works in IDE mode but not in AHCI mode then the following procedure should solve the problem:
1) Run the Registry Editor (regedit.exe)
2) Navigate to Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Msahci
3) Set the "Start" value to 0 (zero)
4) Navigate to Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Pciide
5) Set the "Start" value to 0 (zero)
6) Shut down
7) Start up again, but before Windows boots go into the BIOS configuration screens and change the disk mode to "AHCI". Save the new BIOS configuration and restart so that Windows boots.
When Windows starts, it will detect the change, load new disk drivers, and do one more reboot to start up with them.
1) Run the Registry Editor (regedit.exe)
2) Navigate to Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Msahci
3) Set the "Start" value to 0 (zero)
4) Navigate to Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Pciide
5) Set the "Start" value to 0 (zero)
6) Shut down
7) Start up again, but before Windows boots go into the BIOS configuration screens and change the disk mode to "AHCI". Save the new BIOS configuration and restart so that Windows boots.

If the clean OS is installed there is no problem, after i Install the CCC, it requires Reboot, and then i Stuck after the boot logo. If i switch from AHCI to IDE, my computer keeps rebooting, (it not even passing windows logo [it freezes then it reboots])

If still not working:Since new CCC AMD drivers also update their AHCI driver. Try to search these files in the windows/system32/drivers: amdsata.sys" & "amdxata.sys, make a copy and put it somewhere you can remember then delete the original files.. go to bios and enable AHCI.
I'll try it at home, but as i said i installed the os in AHCI mode, and in IDE mode my PC keeps rebooting, i can still get in safe mode and delete those files. I also checked the new files amd_sata.sys and amd_xata.sys (the underscore is the newer) and deleted the olders, but not helped. should i remove all the amd_sata blabla from the drivers folder?

start fresh.. re'install windows but before you do , go into your bios change it to AHCI then install windows fresh install ,, then when your putting your drivers back on unselect that option it should be there like the pics in Abmario's post ... hope this helps
Sure, but that's my problem, that i installed it in AHCI mode
Should i try fresh install in IDE mode then try the switch to AHCI?-
