So i just installed my SSD and got everything up and running for the most part. Every time im doing something i get the BSOD. I'm not sure why this is happening. I know a lot of people ran into this problem before. My BIOS is up too date and my RAM is working fine. Everything boots up and works from 30min to an hour. I only seem to get the screen if i am doing something, my computer will stay running fine when its just idle.

Im not sure if i need to update the firmware for the SSD or something? The drivers are up too date according to Windows. Not sure what to do here. Any help?

You can use something like crystaldiskinfo to check what firmware you have. If it is too old, maybe check this to see if it is newer.

Well, if that is so, Corsair has nothing newer, they seem to list 5.03 as the newest.

If you do not have a reply here soon, The Corsair forums may actually be even better as they deal with the Corsair brand drives far more often.

What is the blue screen error you get by the way?
