No, don't think so. Vidcard is a ATI Radeon and the no/so bridges are
AMD. I guess I should flash the mobo bios, though. Doing that now.

Well, the firmware update didn't help matters. Setup refuses the see the
SSD...what b*tch.

I hadn't install the firmware update as the date on the SSD is October.
However, I see they do have an update since then which I have just installed.
Now to remove the HD and reboot from CD to see if Setup will see the SSD now.

Just finished a Win7 Pro install on an Intel 160 gig SSD, created a
boot cd to update the firmware before doing anything and all worked
smooth. The only bad part is now I know how slow the DVD drive is for
installs since once it got to the part limited by the drive speed it
was only a few secs if that.

I know the SSD is working because when I boot off the HD (which is currently
unplugged) and can use the SSD as drive E:. I have copied files to it and
whatnot.
The computer BIOS sees the drive as well as the DVD I'm using to install
Win7.
Any ideas?
I'm mainly just testing a fresh install onto the SSD before I move it to my
main system (home).
