OK. Let's see if I still have the link that I recommend that you use:
Go to this link:Crucial.com Product Downloads - Firmware Updates
You want download both the manual and the firmware for the MANUAL boot file for Windows.
I'm including a pic with the arrow pointing at the set you need.
Attachment 223191
Read that manual for the MANUAL method.
Do not use the Windows 7 Updater Application.
With the MANUAL method, burn the downloaded ISO file to a CD or a DVD if you prefer but CD is more than enough.
To burn an ISO in Win 7, you just need to dbl-clk on the ISO and a burn dialog window pops up. You click on the Verify checkbox, insert the CD and click on the Burn button.
Now let's say that you've burnt the ISO to CD.
Insert the CD.
Remove Power.
Disconnect ALL drives SSD and HDD.
Connect the SSD that you want to update to the place where the SSD was that was updated already.
Power Up.
the manual for the MANUAL method shows you what to expect and what to do, although as simple as it is, you should be able to sail thru this.
As to the correct connections for your drives, I do not know. On this point, you will need to download the manual for the mobo and read and read and reread.
There is one very distinct possibility which is that you need to update the mobo BIOS, the mobo chipset driver and other mobo drivers. I can not stress enough how important this is in your case.
I must be honest in that I never was fond of any Belgium beer, although I certainly downed a few after finishing a long walk. I was in europe for many, many years and would go on the 100 km walks, the Todtmarch? (the Amis called it Death March), the Paris-Tubize walk (300 km--4 x 75 km) and a 125 km in 24 hour walk that was right around Christmas time--ah yes, think it was simply named after the town of Tubize. Beer tasted rather good after those walks.
Oh well, those were the days.
