I built this PC for gaming and sound editing a little under 2 years ago. It has worked like a champ up until the end of July. I started getting BSODs. When the computer would restart it would say something to the effect that it cannot locate the hard drive where windows is installed. I reinstalled windows 7 after formatting the hard drive and I am still having issues with it BSOD and restarting. The odd thing is initially after restarting it does not detect the ssd, but after turning the power switch on and off it detects it.

Do you guys think its the ssd failing on me or is the windows updates from the end of July what got me.

It started out of the blue and has been driving me insane as I haven't been able to get work done on the computer when I should have no problem.


Is there any other information that you guys would need?
