And just to make clear, i did install this:
Intel(R) Matrix Storage Manager Driver V8.9.0.1023 for Windows 32/64bit XP & Windows 32/64bit Vista & 32/64bit Windows 7.(WHQL)
Intel(R) AHCI/RAID Driver Disk for Windows 32/64bit XP & Windows 32/64bit Vista & 32/64bit Windows 7.

I don't know if you missed that. If i take the wrong one or something...

I do not normally recommend this, but... Right click the device, and click update driver software. See if Microsoft has a more up to date driver for the device.

It says that the last version is already installed.. But in Driver Detective it says it's not up to date...

That is why I normally do not recommend it. Microsoft usually has old drivers in its database for updating device driver software. See if the Intel driver update utility is able to find an update now that the driver is installed.

Well.. I can't seem to find it :/

It do look like this:

I did find this:
8.9.0.1023 is known by us, forum users, to cause major headaches, there's a thread about it right on this same forum section where you posted this thread.

http://communities.intel.com/thread/5036
Random drive fails with new Matrix Storage Manager 8.9

it's at 50K views and 320+ replies/complaints and intel can't seem to find the cause and repair it.

The general solution is to downgrade to v8.8.0.1009, that has fixed the problem for the vast majority (including me on xp).

v8.8 might not be officially supported for Win7 but people that tried it reported that it works ok.

Edit: you might also want to try the drivers intel made for Dell, version 8.9.2.1002, but they are not guaranteed to work and Intel only certified them for a few Dell models that had some issues: http://communities.intel.com/message/71042#71042

Is this maybe something i have trouble with?
Gee.. I don't know, just waiting for a reply of what to do ^^

Looks like you have everything set up properly based on your motherboard site for that driver. See how things go. If you continue to have problems, we can look into the haunting of 8.9.0.1023...

Mokay..
I wonder what's going on ^^

Something says me that this battle with the computer isn't over... :/

Well.. 2012-03-21 was the last time i got a bluescreen now. So it looks like it was a driverissue.

I must tank you writhziden very much for your time and help. I appreciate it! :)
