XPS13 Win10 dual boot 'raid' issue (solved)

Question

New XPS13 with Win10 factory install I've shrunk the windows partition, Changed boot sequence to Ubuntu/Windows, Left boot list options at 'UEFI' Turned off 'fast start', Have Enable UEFI Network stack checked. Had to change SATA Operation from RAID-On to AHCI to have the linux installer see my partition. Successfully installed LinuxMint 18 and grub menu.  However...   Linux will only boot if I go into bios and change SATA operation to AHCI.  Windows will only boot if the SATA operation is set to RAID-on Any help and/or workarounds is greatly appreciated. (solved)  Here's what worked for me to change from RAID to AHCI:  http://triplescomputers.com/blog/uncategorized/solution-switch-windows-10-from-raidide-to-ahci-operation/

Appreciate the quick response.  However this link was for moving to RAID from AHCI.  I need to go the other way.  I did find the answer that worked for me here:  triplescomputers.com/.../
