System specs are in my sig.
I recently put this rig together just last week out of brand new components. It was fine for the first week however I'm starting to get BSODs/STOP errors. But that's not all. When I restart the rig the system doesn't recognize the SSD until I enter the BIOS, reset everything to defaults, save and exit, reenter BIOS, enable the SSD in the Hard Drive section and then change the boot priority. And for the record, in case you're wondering, the boot priority section doesn't list the SSD until after I change the HDD to the SSD in the Hard Drive section. Until I go through this process not even the Marvell SATA III post screen recognizes the SSD. It just sits there for a while than tries to boot from the HDD.
The last time it happened I was watching an episode of Futurama online. About halfway through the episode I lost sound. I paused and tried to exit full screen mode but it was at that point that I got the STOP Error.
The time before that I had to run Windows Repair from the install disk since even after going through that BIOS process it still returned a BOOTMGR is missing error.
Everytime I load the BIOS default I lose my OC but thankfully that isn't too much of a problem since I saved it to an OC Profile.
I'm at a loss as to why this is happening. Why on earth would my BIOS just randomly stop recognizing my SSD until I load defaults?
EDIT: Just a bit more information. I was using the leaked 0501 BIOS. I just flashed the 0404 BIOS and will see how that works out.
