Look for setting in your bios that switches hdd's from IDE (legacey) mode to AHCI mode.

If you have installed the OS in IDE mode, then there is no want/need to install or configure for AHCI operation. So if you are seeing an AHCI message during startup, and the system is otherwise running properly, you may safely ignore it.
