TRIM update hosed my Windows 7 install

Just did the firmware update and it hosed my Windows 7 installation. The updater showed a successful firware update. Initially the computer booted just fine, but once I was within Windows it installed some drivers and asked for a reboot. That's when the trouble started. Now the drive won't boot Windows 7 anymore. I don't know if it's a Dell problem or Intel problem. The Dell BIOS claims a SMART error. I have a Dell XPS 8000.

1. I just meant what drivers had been installed during / before flashing the SSD. Afterwards (after the widely mentioned "new drivers install" thingie after reboot) those are MS again.

2. I still have the Intel tool installed and

3. I used it several times since. No problems at all.

They said the Tool box is available, the URL give's some info but there is no link to Download the ToolBox

Does the ToolBox support RAID 0 configuration ?

Thank you
