Windows 7 does not recognize my 240GB SSD drive. All formatting programs (Diskpart, AOMIE Partition Assistant, and CrystalDiskInfo) return the data error. None of the on-line "helps" have provided any workable solution. Intel Rapid Storage shows the drive, device manager shows the drive as unnumbered, unallocated and unformatted.
Formatting with crystaldiskinfo yielded same result. BIOS is current. Motherboard is ASUS z87 with intel i7 processor.
