That's what I've planned to do first. Well first I will upgrade my CPU fan. I'm using the intel's one. Somebody has told me that could be a temperature issue. Then I will test and if it keeps freezing then I'll install win7 on the 500Gb. Let's see what happens. Anyway until the weekend I will...

Hi I'm experiencing a problem running my new own-built computer. First of all I will detail the components of the computer. CPU: i7 2600K Mobo: Asus P8Z68V-Pro RAM: 2 x 4Gb G.Skill Ripjaws X DDR3 1600 PC3-12800 SSD OCZ Vertex 3 120Gb (OS and Programs) HD Spindle 500 Gb SATA3 (Data Storage)...

Hi There! I have problems intalling Lucid Virtu. When I use the Igpu it says that it can not install because there's no discrete Graphic Card, and when I use my Nvidia GTX465 it says that it can not install because it can't detect the iGPU. Maybe is something related to the Bios Setting? I...

Thanks! Great explanation! I will check when I'm back home. Printouts are very helpful! :-)

Then my Win 7 does not recognize the ssd. I had to turn of the run on schedule for my ssd. Any clues on how can Imake win 7 to recognize it? I've updated the storage drivers to the latest ones. The SSD is conected to an Asus P8Z68 Pro Mobo in the intel Z68 SATA6 port (not the marvell)

How do I see that W7 is detecting the SSD not a normal HD? What's the UAC abbreviation means? Thank you for your help!:)

Thanks! I'll do as you say.

What are the steps to update the Bios? I've checked the asus page and I see instructions for Flash Bios AFUSO Bios and AWDFALSH Bios but nothing for UEFI Bios. I've downloaded the BUPDATER but it does not run under W7. Shall I use it unde DOS window. If anybody could give me some rules for doing...

Does the Intel SSD Optimizer work with an OCZ vertex 3 drive?

I just instal win 7 Pro from zero on a new and empty OCZ Vertex3 SSD. I've just tried to use the command "fsutil.exe behavior query DisableDeleteNotify" to check if it's enabled but it says that I need Administrator Privileges to run it. But in fact I'm the only user and I've checked and I have...

Hi I've just built my new system that includes an ssd disk and Windows 7. I've read that trimming is very important. Does win 7 trim it automatically? Or where is the option to do it manually? It's my first approach to win 7 and ssd so i'm bit lost. Thank's in advance!

Thanks. I'll do as you suggest.

Hi I'm about to build my new computer based on the P8Z68VPro Motherboard and I've been reading the posts. Just one question. What's the best SAta6 port to connect my new OCZ Vertex 3 SSD? The Intel Z38 or the MArvellII connector? I will use it mainly for the OS and some programs. Data storage...

Thank you for the info. I will go for the intel and update to windows 7 regards

Hi Everybody! I’m planning to update my computer. First step will be buying a SSD. I’ve read a bit but I’m a little bit lost. Maybe you can help me. Right now I have an Asus PK5 Deluxe motherboard that supports SATA II but I’m thinking to buy soon a new P67...
