Windows 7 has AHCI drivers. If you installed with the controller in that mode, then applying manufacturer AHCI drivers is not an issue.

...because the chipset may not support AHCI... as already stated.Also, even though the file has "AHCI" in the name... it may not actually fully support it with his chipset.
No. If Windows cannot identify it properly through Device Manager, then it cannot find a compatible or newer driver.
Once again...
