Hi guys,
My brother has a Core2Duo system based on the Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L (Rev.2001) motherboard and he recently bought a new SSD.
He followed the first instruction you would probably give: he made a fresh install of Windows 7 64bit on the SSD after upgrading the board to the latest BIOS version.
First of all, he noticed the OS installation and subsequent software installations seemed to take much longer than with his old HDD. He also noted that the system seems quite 'jerky'.
He did some initial research and followed instructions to ensure AHCI mode was enabled in the BIOS but his BIOS does not contain that option.
I don't know which SSD but I will find out, if it is important.
The problem is very similar to this (I am allowed to post this link aren't I?)
We were hoping for some advice and hoping that you folks may know what the problem might be with this motherboard,
Thanks in advance,
Tig
