[QUOTE="BillyTheFish, post: 875189, member: 82282"] In case this is happening to anyone else, if you have a Crucial M4 and have found your system freezing recently at random (usually after 1/2 hour to an hour of use)... Google 5000 hour bug. There is a bug with M4 drives that after 5000 hours of use, they will start doing this. The solution is simple, just update the firmware (go to SSD Support on the Crucial site). I used the Windows 7 update utility and it worked fine but if you want to be safe, probably best to burn the update utility to CD and boot from it. No data loss here but backup your files first!
