so i got my friend an ssd and im currently trying to install windows. "big mess"

So i went into bios and changed it to AHCI an d set it as primary boot target 1. i get all the way to installing windows where i get "windows cannot be installed on this disk. this computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. ensure that the disks controller is enabled in the computers BIOS menu." so i ingnored this and when i gets to the second part of installing it crashes cant find a fix to save my life. hopefully one of u guys can help me

Just a shot in the dark, your motherboard has post serviced both vy the AMD SB and a Jmicro controller. Did you set AHCI and boot on the right controller? (Use the AMD SB850 ports)
 
On my old AMD build, I had to use the last SATA port for AHCI to work correctly with my ssd.

Check your manual.
