    Computer freeze every hour ! No real BSOD but cold reboot is necessary


    Hi people and thanks for helping
    I have an issue for 2 days now... my computer freeze almost every hour. I have to cold reboot it, reset reboot does'nt work.
    After a moment, it says "insert a bootable drive....."
    So : my system drive is a Crucial M4 SSD 256 Go on a SATA 6G intel controller (i had to change the controller from a MARVELL one that causes real BSOD's)
    My date drive is a Seagate Barracuda 2T0 on the same 6G intel controller

    Surprisingly, the event monitor tells me that the marvell mv91xx.sys could not be loaded !! (i have to say that i disabled the MARVELL SATA controller in the bios)

    Can anybody help me ?
    Oups ! Almost one hour ! i 'm gonna freezz !!
    Cheers

    Problem solved


    That was it ! The crucial m4 had a bug in his older firmware versions that causes freezing of the SSD one hour after the boot. This problem appears only after 5000 hours of functionning !

    The issue is solved by upgrading the firmware to the latest version on the crucial website

    Thanks for your help ;-)
