Hello,
I'm on a fairly older model of motherboard, I believe the P5B-VM SE came out around 2007, but with quite the highest end CPU, RAM, and graphics on it I'm unlikely to change it anytime soon as it's good to go another 5 years. I have an SSD on the system too, and it is not getting max performance(score 7.0) due to lack of AHCI support in the BIOS. The option doesn't exist. I've noted however that it uses an ICH8 chipset so it may be possible to put AHCI on it with the right BIOS mod.

Latest BIOS link: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/socket775/P5B-VM%20SE/P5B-VM-ASUS-SE-1101.zip
If it is possible to guide me through the process of doing so, I am tech savvy enough to use editing tools or such in order to do it.
Thank you.
