ra3or Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Hello, I have a Corsair F60 SSD, with the following issues: POST: - sometimes freezes POST, on detection Windows 7: When I run HD Tune Pro to do a quick error scan, at about 43Gb scanned, it either: - freezes my operating system - disappears, I can't find it in Management/Hardware Scan OS INSTALL: -windows 7 install(from usb stick) stops at about 76-83% expanding files, with an error message(Windows cannot access the installation sources...) After one of the above occurs, only option is manual reset or Power Off from PSU FW 2.4 AHCI enabled. Tests run on 2 distinct computers, i5 and core2duo, with the SSD and usb bootable sticks only, latest motherboards bioses. Tried installing windows 7 x86 and x64. Hardware malfunction ? IF it were just a bad sectors issue, should it not be discovered by hdtune and continue scanning? without the OS freeze and SSD disconnect ? If need be, I will post more screens. Edit -motherboards: Intel DH55PJ Asus P5KPL-AM -------- screen: http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/1671/ssd1q.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
