    I have a problem with installing SSD GoodRam 120GB in my Asus K50IN notebook. I replaced the (working) hard disk drive with the SSD. The SSD is recognized in BIOS (I have the latest version 217 of the BIOS).

    When I run Windows 7 64bit installation from the DVD, the setup program find the SSD. It start instaling Windows, but after a while refuses to install on it with the message: "8x70080005." error code.

    When I boot with Ubuntu 12.04 Linux DVD, its the same.

    I try 7/8/8.1/10 and XP and nothing.

    This is all with AHCI ("Advanced") mode set up in BIOS. When I set the "Compatible" mode, the story is the same with Linux, and the drive is not found by Windows installer at all.

    The SSD works fine in another computer.
    The notebook works fine with a hard disk inside (it has Win7 installed, Ubuntu boot DVD recognizes the HDD and its partitions).

    Thanks for your help!
