atbs Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Greetings! I have a small HTPC using a Corsair Nova V32 as system drive. Recently the machine crashed (for the second time) with a BSOD (stop: 0x000000F4) and while rebooting, the BIOS cannot detect the drive anymore. Instead the machine asks for a valid boot device. Soft reset doesn't help, only a complete power cycle can get the drive working again. There are no corrupted files or other errors reported from Windows. Firmware is 1.2, the device runs for ~3600 hours now (bought it in may 2011). It first crashed at ~3500 hours. I already tried another SATA port (port 0, 1, 2, ...) but that didn't help. Unfortunately there are no additional errors or warnings in the windows event log - just the crash :[pouts: The system specs are stored in my profile. Is there a firmware update for the drive available? Any help appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
