    Hi,guys. My laptop is G51VX-RX05 bestbuy version+ windows 7. Yesterday, I got a new Intel X25-M 34nm G2 160GB SSD. It works great, but I still have some issue.

    1. After added SSD, My G51 is always reboot twice before windows 7 login screen shows up. the same problem by using only SSD. I tied to update BIOS to 205, but there is no change.

    2. G51 can only recognise the first Hard drive in Enhanced Mode? I inserted SSD into first HDD bay, 320G 7200.3 into second HDD bay.
    In compatibleMode, both SSD and HDD shows up.
    In enhanced Mode, only SSD shows up.
    I just worried about SSD performance slow down in compatible mode. :(

    anyone can help me? thanks
