"SATA is found running at IDE MODE!"
When the motherboard is set to its default values, the monitor will display a message during the POST, telling you the

able hot plug functionality for the SATA connectors.
Press <Y> to enable AHCI mode or <N> to continue IDE mode operation and stop showing this message again.
Note: This message will appear again at next boot if you do not respond YES or NO in time.
