Hi guys, I recently changed my SSD (old Samsung SSD 830 had unrecoverable clusters, now I'm wondering if this was the cause) and updated to Win8, and now I have some serious problems with my system.
Problems:
- DVD-ROM disappears after Windows boot (I see it on BIOS and during the beginning of Windows loading, but disappears when booting is done)
- HDD activity led always on (it's properly connected to system panel header, I've used it for years)
- After installing all drivers (latest versions available), I still have two unknown devices: "Controller PCI Simple Communications" and "Unknown device"
- Windows keeps freezing on some actions (for now, I've found those: insert USB drives, running Samsung Magician, installing Broadcom LAN drivers...), and requires 4 secs of power button to reboot
Configuration:
Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Extreme 6 (UEFI 2.70, latest available)
CPU: Intel Core i7-3770 3.40GHz
HDD: Samsung SSD 840 250GB (plugged to Intel SATA3 slot)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance Red 8GB Dual Channel DDR3 1600MHz
Video: Sapphire Radeon HD 7770 Vapor-X 1GB GDDR5
Audio: Asus Xonar Essence ST
OS: Windows 8 64-bit
I really have no idea on how to proceed... Any help would be much appreciated. ; )
