Having a difficult time working this issue out. The computer while browsing the internet will all of a sudden reboot. This did NOT happen on Windows XP, and I didnt notice when I first installed Win 7 64 on a different hard drive, but that was for a day and it was a minimal install. I have tried to blame it on the C300 as the problem but the updated BIOS has not changed this particular issue. This literally happens as soon as some item loads in a web-page or I click a web-page. It is NOT a BSOD so there isn't something to post from C:\WINDOWS\MiniDump, it just reboots right then and there, it's causing havoc with my applications... and the OS keeps causing a 'Kernel-Power' after a reboot. Logs are clean, it just doesn't know why the system was shut down unexpectedly... ;-) The hardware is all good, ran various OS's without any issue, it's just been with Win 7 64 bit.

CPU - AMD Phenom II X4 955 Rev RB-C3 (Default Speed)
MoBo - MSI 790FX-GD70 rev 00 (v1.13 BIOS)
RAM - 2x2GB Kingston Hyper X T1 PC3-10700 DDR3 (Default Timings)
Video - XFX 8800GT (8.17.12.5896 drivers)
HDD0 - Crucial C300 128GB SSD (BIOS 0002)
HDD1 - 2xHITACHI HDS721050CLA362 RAID 1 on SATA 7/8
Power Supply - Antec TruePower New TP-750 Blue 750W
OS - Windows 7 Professional 64bit

I will say that this OS was loaded from a Ghost Image I made when it was on a WD Raptor. I did have a similar issue years ago with a ASRock 939Dual-Sata2, there were a bunch of tweaks that were needed in the BIOS like disabling Cool & Quiet, changing 1T to 2T and a bump in DRAM.... So there is a lot's to guess about. :) This can be replicated if I try and view MLB.TV or this http://www.soundblaster.com/worldofwarcraft/demo/welcome.aspx, so Flash is a suspect, Motherboard is a suspect.... and the C300 is a suspect..
