Problem with my pc

I put an ssd in my pc about two weeks ago to boot windows from. This morning, literally minutes ago, I turned my pc on and then went off somewhere else in the house to take care of something.

After a few minutes I returned and my pc was stuck at the 'Verifying DMI Pool Data...' part, and was making no progress. I've watched it boot with the ssd in to know that it should have been in Windows by then.

I pressed the reset button and when it got to the same spot again, it went through it like it used to, but it seemed a little slower to me. I might be paranoid though. How can I check and see if my SSD is going bad or already toast? Thank you.

DISCLAIMER: I have my cpu overclocked.
 
One thing that can help if to make your cd rom the first boot device, place in your original windows install disk, and let it do its thing by reloading drivers. That by itself will often cure the problem. At least for a while. And will it load to safemode?

Failing that, you may have to load bios defaults and lose your overclock which you can reset up later.
