Disus Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 @Disus : You have to set your bios to enable raid in order to install those drivers! I don't have any RAID options in Bios, it's Sony SZ7 laptop, so there are not too many options to choose from. P.S. I also have Corsair Force in my PC - works without any BSODs :roll: Sleep, hibernate - everything is OK, but you know, in normal PC there are hell a lot of settings in Bios, so it's possible to play with it, I've disabled Quick Boot - works with Sleep OK (Win7 SP1) Note that there's a difference between being admin and running as admin. Tried run as Admin before - no luck. Is AHCI enabled in BIOS? Of course ;): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klinik Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I tried this method (the registry modification "TreatAsInternalPort") since I had the BSOD after some inactivity time (for example at the login screen): IT WORKS!

Sandyg Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Hi, ref: sleep issue. My computer wouldn't sleep from windows, I just made sure it wasn't set to wake from lan and I press the power button once and the computer goes to sleep and wakes up promptly by any key on the keyboard and you're ready to go. I love this feature, but it might be a feature just related to my particular gigabyte motherboard, it will not sleep under windows you think it works, it goes off and comes straight back on again.

Toasted Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 You press the power button on the case and it sleeps...And press a key on the keyboard or mouse and it turns on. That can be set through the Power Options in the control panel. By Sleep you meaning it, Windows will not do anything?, Or the monitor sleeps but the computer is still on. If its the monitor going to sleep but not the computer go to your BIOS and set the suspend mode to S3 instead of auto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pslind Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I don't think it's a driver issue, or that ppl need to reinstall windows, when it is clearly something with the ssd. I use the default msachi driver on the intel sata 2 port 0 (not touching marvell, in fact I disabled all marvell chips in bios, and use a seperate nic). I ONLY updated the firmware to 1.3.2, and updated my bios to version 0701, and loaded defaults and reconfigured bios afterwards, and I haven't had a BSOD since. Note: I don't use any sleep functions in windows, but I still had BSOD's before 1.3.2. Edit: (6 days and counting without a BSOD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hybrid2d4x4 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Hi everyone, just wanted to post back after resolving my wake-from-sleep/non-detection @POST-on-cold-boot issues. The solution: RMA and hope for a working drive back. As some have said before, the problem is rarely (if ever) a software, configuration, BIOS or whatever else some people like to point the finger at (assuming you are competent enough to have done everything right). There IS a problem with some proportion of the shipped drives, and if you are one of the unlucky ones, make use of that warranty to get what you paid for. If you tried some of the suggested remedies in this or other threads and it didn't work, contact the RMA group, do what they tell you and if that fails, send it away until you get a working drive! @Toasted: I'm shocked to find out that you're not working for Corsair as you seem to be replying to people's posts more than the actual employees are, and honestly, your tendency to blame everything other than the drives themselves have wasted a fair bit of my time and might be causing others frustration as well. If I hadn't mistaken you for one of their tech support mods/admins, I would have sent away my defective drive about a week and a half earlier. For someone that obviously seems to like the company, I think you may actually be doing them more harm than good by sending people on wild goose-chases at the expense of Corsair's reputation (ie: people will get more and more pissed at the company because they can't get their drive to work).

Toasted Posted October 22, 2011 Author Share Posted October 22, 2011 I am sorry if i have caused you and others frustration and/or wasted your time. But getting things to work is extremely hard considering the Time-zones and response time from users. If they don't reply within 1-2 days then to me it may seem that they are now not willing to troubleshoot their drive. But if they reply within 3+ days I will reply back by giving the user help after the latest post from the user. The way i troubleshoot things is by this: 1.BIOS/Software/Drivers/hardware BIOS- Checking the user has enabled AHCI, Or if they have made changes that may cause problems. Software- Unless the Minidump is attached, then it would be easier to tell what caused the BSOD. Drivers - Old drivers may have compatibility problems with the SSD. Updating it can make it more stable. Hardware- SATA cables, etc. 2.Secure erase the drive, Then Re-install Windows. If all those in #1 failed then this continue to #2 3.RMA the drive. If all #1 and #2 failed then continue with #3 If you and other users think i should change the way i troubleshoot. Please post back stating the changes and why would it be better.

EugenF Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I just had that BSOD from sleep despite trim is disabled. Hmm, I start thinking about returning the drive if its possible. It's not very cool to have a netbook that can't go to sleep. I did the same thing (disabled TRIM) and not working. I have Force 115 GB2-A (firmware 2.1a) with ASUS laptop UL50AG Mobile Intel® GS45 Express Chipset (Core™2 Duo Processor SU7300 : 1.3 GHz). Any ideea?

EugenF Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 -Updated your Chipset drivers? -Enabled AHCI in Windows and the BIOS? -When was the last time you installed Windows? 1. Yes, chipset drivers are updated (Intel driver 10.6.0.1002 from 5/20/2011, Intel ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller) 2. AHCI is enabled in BIOS and Windows 7 64x. 3. Windows is a clone of a spinnig disc. It is not a fresh install. I have also an Unbuntu 11.10 partition (which it get the same error). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted October 30, 2011 Author Share Posted October 30, 2011 By when was the last time you installed Windows i mean.

sstouffer Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Just a heads up for everyone that still has the BSOD on resume from sleep issue - firmware 2.4 for the Force series came out. No changelog has been released, so it's unknown if this fixes the issue, but worth a shot. Personally I've updated to 2.4 on my Force F40, secure-erased it and installed Windows 7 64-bit yesterday and testing it out. After making my computer sleep roughly 6 times, only once it resumed to a black screen. The other times it resumed like a champ - no BSOD's yet. I'm crossing my fingers, hoping the problem has been fixed once and for all. I was getting ready to either RMA or sell my drive for a non-sandforce SSD. Read about firmware 2.4 here: http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=100449 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EugenF Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I updated my F115GB2-A to 2.4 firmware and still BSOD after wake from sleep state.:[pouts: A day before (ssd with 2.1a firmware) I secure erased ssd with Parted Magic and I made a partition aligned to 1024KB. Then I installed a fresh Win7 64x . No succes and still BSODs after wake. PS. At secure errasing process I was getting "Security state is set to frozen...The SECURITY_ERASE command cannot be performed" message. I cannot make erase as internal ssd. Then I was forced to put SSD on USB2,0 port as an external device (I have an external HDD adaptor) and it succeded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
