    I'll always be lost compared to the knowldge you and the other jedi masters have on these forums. I'm glad that I am lost here an not some other board. Thanks for the re-install push, I'll admit I didn't want to do it at first, but it all was worth it

    Device Instance ID is not an option only device instance path, but the only code is ACPI\SMO8800\1

    Is a Free-Fall Sensor ..

    So the PDF (didn't have anything to read it on at the time)
    Adobe - Adobe Reader download - All versions
    Adobe Reader will read only the pdf file.
    When installing be sure to uncheck the McAfee option.

    Ok so in this pic are the listed ATA/ATAPI ACHI controllera
    IDE ATA/ATAPI driver missing?-file.png

    Are these set up to use TRIM properly. I'm going off the SSD tutorial which states

    ext, we need to make sure our ATA/ATAPI ACHI controller is set to use trim.
    EDIT! 3/22/10: The new INTEL chipset drivers 9.6.0.1014 support TRIM! Use these instead of the MS AHCI ones for Intel Chipsets.
    RAID: Intel® Rapid Storage Technology Driver for Intel Desktop Boards

    For non-intel chipsets:
    To see/change it, go to device manager and select IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. If it says "Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller", you are good to go. If not, double click it and select the driver tab. Click update driver. Select browse. Select let me pick. select Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller.
    Before I go messing with anything I wanted to make sure if I should or shouldn't change anything

    BB see this How to TRIM a SSD in Windows 7 and also use the Samsung Magician software to get the best out of the SSD.
    I did this on all my SSD's and I have Samsung (830 and EVO's) SanDisk Crucial and I have no t had any problems.
