    So I borrowed my Mom's cheap $5 flash drive and that one works fine. Apparently, mine is too good to use or something. I'll get the firmware updated and post back here later.

    I have ran the firmware update and then re-installed windows 7 pro. While updating and downloading my essential programs again, my computer BSoD'd 4 times within 3 hours. Here is the file. If you would like a list of the programs I have downloaded, just let me know.

    Now do a big test.

    Install windows on another HDD, just a a test whether it is behaving the same or not.

    Just a thought, do you have only the drive you install w7 to attached when installing? that is how it should be done.

    @Britton30 No I had both my Seagate HDD and my Adata SSD attached. Because the SSD is kinda small, I move my library and some other non-essential programs onto that drive, saving space on the SSD for games and such.

    @Arc do you want me to disconnect both the SSD and HDD or just the SSD when I install windows again?

    Yes, that is how the OS should be installed. Britton30 also mentioned it.

    Just to make sure, I am disconnecting the SSD and installing a copy of Win 7 on the Seagate 2TB? Or would you like me to install it on another HDD ( i have a spare 320GB that I can use ) with both the Seagate and the SSD disconnected?

    It would be the best if you install windows on the spare 320 GB HDD, with all other discs unattached during installation.

    I have installed win 7 on my 320GB with no other drives attached and its been running for 5 hours with no issues. I have it full updated with a few different programs installed as well. It hasn't crashed at all, even in the spots that it crashed in before. So what's next?
