"Loading operating system, please wait ......."

Hey guys, a few days ago I did a fresh install of windows 7 on my SSD, after that I noticed my SATA controller is set to IDE, so I then changed my SATA Controller to AHCI and installed the intel SATA controller on my motherboards drivers. However there is a problem, my computer has been acting strangely on bootup, saying stuff that it did not before-hand. Here are some photos to explain, I'm sorry if they are not very clear, whenever I boot my PC these appear in order, and take around 30 seconds for windows to start loading.

Before changing my SATA controller this did not appear, my computer still works perfect, it just takes a bit more time finding the operating system then it should. Is there a way I can fix this? I'm not too bothered, just concerned. Please help me figure this out, because I want my boot times to be as fast as possible, and I feel as if this is setting me back, especially considering that my computer never acted in such a way before.

 

Here is how my device manger appeared before and after changing to the intel SATA controller, if that matters.

First off, thanks for the quick replies!

 

By " ROM" I assume that you are referring to the BIOS? If I do actually update my BIOS, as I never have done before, will I loose any of the settings that I have applied /r any of my data?

How do I turn off ROM messages then? And also, if you take a look at the first picture, why does it say that this version only supports Hard Disks and CD drives despite having my SSD as my main :C drive?
