Hi,
Firstly thanks for dropping by and i apologize in advance if this has been discussed before somewhere.
Here's the problem, my Intel X-25G2 80gb was working flawlessly for the past 1 and the half month with AHCI
enabled.
Until last week it began to BSOD immediately on Win7 x64 boot screen i had no choice but to switch to IDE mode in order to
load windows. I set it to AHCI again and tried to reformat and reinstall win7 all over again but each time it freezes on "Completing Installation"
I contacted intel support and submitted my CSV log files to them and they said there was no problem with the logs
I am running out of ideas, can someone pls help me?
The drive is on the latest firmware.
IDE mode really drags this drive to a crawl, 4k read/write speeds has drop to something like 4.1 mbps on crystalmark
system specs:
Intel i7-920
EVGA Classifed on BIOS 44
Corsair HX 1000w PSU
Team Xtreem 6gb 1866mhz
GTX 295 video card
Intel X-25 G2 80gb

Just taking a shot in the dark here, what kind of driver are you using for AHCI? Are there any warning flags in Device Manager? Did you change anything recently? Have you checked your SSD for any SMART issues?
