    I just did a fresh windows install on a Kingston 64GB SSD drive. I left the other 500 GB drive in.

    Everything installed fine, Chipset drivers, latest 12.1 ATi drivers and then when I went to install the latest intel storage matrix driver it will always BSOD. I can't seem to read the error, but that has to be the issue. I then run the restore wizard and it brings it back to the last known good configuration.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You mean intel rapid storage technology or storage matrix. Storage matrix was replaced by RST a long time ago so that might be the issue if you are trying to install storage matrix instead of RST.

    What is the BSOD error message you get? Most important is the 0x...... code and the settence before/after it.

    I'll try the above method, thanks for the help. As for the error code, not sure it goes by too fast. I know there is a way to keep the computer from rebooting and staying on the screen. I have been too lazy to search for it. :mad:

    Press F8 just before Windows starts, after the Bios. There you should get a selection, one of them is something like "disable automatic restart after a crash".

    I downloaded the program, but how do I remove the RST or storage matrix. I can't find it mentioned in any of the lists.

    If the program is installed, it should be listed in the programs list in the task manage, if it isn't there, the installation probably never finished.
