I don't know if your system has the same BIOS setting I do, but check
the SATA settings.  In my case, depending on the ACPI level, the SATA
may be REQUIRED to use 'Compatibility' setting.  I know that the ACPI
that comes with RC2 [V3.01, dated 24-Aug-2007] by default MUST have
this setting.  OTOH, I am using 3.03, dated 02-Oct-2007, and I can use
the SATA(AHCI) mode.  'Compatibility' also works with the more recent
ACPI levels, but it causes the stand-alone DFSee to have a problem. 

Don't know if this is applicable to your situation, but it's worth a
look.
