    You would do the same steps regardless which CPU you have.
    Install Vista - pop in cd that came with the mobo.

    AHCI is a unified, generic programming model for SATA host interfaces. It was conceived to exactly NOT need vendor specific drivers - and Vista natively brings a generically useful AHCI driver.
