I had done the "old" method which worked for the ICH7 chipset...
To load the AHCI drivers you will need to buy an e-sata to sata cable.
Use the e-sata port on the backplate of the board to boot up into windows, whilst enabling the AHCI option in the bios.
The installation will prompt you for drivers
Then, simply swap back onto the ICH9 sata port, with AHCI
Worked for me.
