*'%&#+,
mine got busted I think. Tries the Win version, stops with a black screen with a blinking cursor before the update. Tried the bootable CD, updated, disk still doesn`t boot, see above.
Installed Win7 on the HDD, I can still access the SSD. Tried system restore, says soemthing like the image isnīt compatible `cause the machine is BIOS and the image EFI. Installed 7 on the SSD, still doesn`t boot, however I got two Win7 in the start options, both work.
So it seems the SSD is still working, it wont run as boot drive though. Any ideas?

Take out other drives leaving only the SSD, install Windows then check the SSD is first boot device in BIOS. What does that do?

Oki,
after some hours googling, it seems I found the solution.
When Iinstalled 7 on the SSD yesterday, I obviously booted into BIOS mode and installed 7, because of this my system image (which was installed with EFI)wasn`t compatible. So I had to boot with the setup-diskinto BIOS again, delete the both partitions with 7, boot with the setup-disk winto EFI-mode, make new partitions, install 7 again. Then finally the repair option recognized my system image as compatible.
Now restore is slowly crawling along, wish me luck....

Thanks for that NL. I only came in here to try and get my pedals working but now I've updated my SSD firmware and averted possible disaster
