I having significant problems with a fresh install of windows 7 on an Agility 2 drive. I built a new machine:

Phenom II X2 555
Gigabyte 880GA-UD3H
eVGA GTS 250 Card
OCZ Agility 2 60GB SSD
2 DVD drives
1 memory card reader
Corsair 4GB DDR3 1333hz
OCZ ModXStream 600W power supply

Everything seemed fine, Win7 installed but I can not run in Win7 for more that 3 minutes without a blue screen fatal error occurring. Sometimes the crash occurs during windows' loading. Sometimes the system goes straight into a CHKDSK utility.

I have a picture, but here is some text from the blue screen:

Disable or unistall any anti-virus, disk defrag, or backup utilities. Check your hard drive configuration, and check for any updated drivers. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption then restart your computer.

I did not update the firmware on the Agility 2 because it appeared to already be running 1.10. I was running on plain IDE for a while, have recently tried to switch to ACHI, but it has not fixed my problem.

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

If you want to run AHCI mode then you need to set that feature in the bios first, then install Windows. You can't install Windows first then decide to change to AHCI.

Another thing you may check is that your memory voltage is set correctly. Your bios may have it set to the default of 1.5V. If it is then you need to change it to 1.65V for DDR3. Also make sure you have the latest bios update.

Hope this helps.

Good Luck!
