Welcome aboard.

The dump you supplied says:

Use !analyze -v to get detailed debugging information.

BugCheck F4, {3, fffffa801573aa10, fffffa801573acf0, fffff80003397460}

Probably caused by : csrss.exe

Followup: MachineOwner

Bugcheck F4 is a storage related stopcode, common for SSDs. And there are some hint of ntfs, too.

Code:

fffff880`0717d698  fffff880`01c1cbb4 Ntfs!NtfsFsdRead+0x2d4

In this situation what you are to do is

Update the Firmware of the SSD, and check the situation. If fixed, stop here. If not, go the the next steps.
Reseat the sata and power.
Run chkdsk /f/r, following the option two of the tutorial Disk Check
Seatool for dos: SeaTools | Seagate download
Burn it in a blank cd. boot from the CD, click on "Accept", wait for it to finish detecting the drives, then in the upper left corner select "Basic Tests", then select "Long Test" and let it run.

Free up the startup.

Click on the Start button
Type “msconfig (without quotes), click the resulting link. It will open the System Configuration window.
Select the “Startup” tab.
Deselect all items other than the antivirus.
Apply > OK
Accept the restart.

Let us know the situation.

I have updated sys BIOS. I have 2 Transcend TS256GSSD320's . Transcend has a firmware update utility that will not recognize either SSD. I have run utility on different computer using a usb schuttle to connect SSD's . Will not see my 256GB SSD picks up my 64GB SSD no problem. seated reseated sata HD encloser updater will not pick them up. Am waiting for reply from Transcend on this problem. They make ASUS look like the greatest Tech support Co. in the world. (biteing tounge). Will post when I know more. P.S. Is there 3rd party software to help with update?

Sir please forgive me if I told anything harsh. We should respect the seniors all the times, but when online we fail to understand how aged the other person is.

Waiting to see your reply.
