ThinkStation S30 + question Plextor PX - AG512M6e PCI Express SSD

We try to do the Plextor P6e working with S30 as boot drive. For now - no luck. Playing with different settings of BIOS S30 - not made no difference. This PCI Express SSD drive is bootable, without driver, with a clean ROM with AHCI implemented. Logo of ROM shows same at startup. However, it seems that S30 does not know what to do with it. SSD itself supports UEFI boot and legacy.

If the Windows installation (7) is started from DVD, he sees SSDS as 'disc', but it cannot be partiitioned and there is a message, windows cannot be installed on it, since it cannot be boot drive. We have cloned the SSD HARD drive Windows installation; S30 doesn't recognize it, then will not start.

Can anyone help?

P.S., Plextor itself is not a problem, works well with many other computers, even with Lenovo M91p...

Edit - Update: option Legacy - no go, UEFI - install windows on a SSD OK (GPT partition), but freezes or bluescreens when WIndows loads...

Quick update:

-Win 7 installation inherited / boot - NO GO

-Win 7 UEFI install / boot - finally working with some really weird BIOS settings: all parameters must be UEFI, only video OpROM must have the value of legacy... If it is defined in UEFI, Win 7 starts, but display is frozen at "start windows". Also, he needed a few reboots it got finally work without errors...

  • Slot PCI Express HP p7-1203 question!

    I just bought a HP p7-1203 today and I want to update the th graphics card and the specs say that it is a PCI Express x 16 (gen2.0) slot that means it's just a regular PCI Express slot or a PCI Express 2.0 slot? Probably a stupid question.

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?objectID=c02980014

    This means that it is a second generation x 16 PCI-Express slot... so Gen2.0 it conforms to the PCI-E 2.0 standard.

    Should I have someone analyze the material and find the troublemaker?... OR... should I just of reflow of the GPU.

    Hello

    I found and read your other post regarding this problem and in my opinion the PCI Express error is related to a PCI device (i.e miniPCI module as WLan / Bluetooth, etc.) connected to the motherboard.

    Of course I can't say for certain that this question isn't related to a GPU malfunction.
    Usually, these details can be provided only by a technician who checked the laptop's hardware.

    Usually I put t recommend to disassemble the laptop. It s very difficult to perform this procedure and of course there is always a risk of damage part do such procedure without any instructions.

  • What version of the PCI Express x 16, it's my motherboard has

    I am running:

    Pavilion - p6320y

    -AMD Phenom II X 4 820

    -8 GB RAM

    -SATA HARD DRIVE 1 TB (7200 RPM)

    -Motherboard model: Violet6-GL8E

    Question: What version of the PCI Express x 16 is the slot on this motherboard: 1.x, 2.0 or 2.1?

    Can't get this information anywhere.

    Hello:

    I don't think that anyone will be able to give you a definitive answer.

    This article gives the date for the PCIe ranges various x versions.

    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express

    Since you have a relatively new PC, I would say that it is certainly not less than PCIe 2.0 and probably PCie 2.1.

    I have a HP 8200 Elite CMT. I think that it is released at the beginning of this year, or very end of last year. 6570 PCIe 2.1, I use an AMD Radeon card in my PC.  It works very well.

  • Qosmio G40 - 10F won't boot up - PCI Express error

    I recently installed a windows update and the laptop came in restart mode.
    When the system boots it tries to start then I get a say black screen error PCI Express.

    I tried a system restore, but the disc does not start, also tried to access the bios and it does not work.

    Can I please ask for more help on this one because I don't have any problems at all, everything seems that a windows update has messed with my config in the bios.

    Help, please!

    Hello

    I can't believe that Windows update would affect the BIOS.

    In my opinion, this must be just bad luck.

    PCI Express error means generally that a PCI device on the motherboard has started to malfunction.

    This means that it could be a motherboard problem that could be solved by replacing the mobo

    Sorry man, but I think that you don't have a lot of options here... seems that Toshiba ASP technician should take a look at this question :(

  • Bought a refurbished Z800: can I install a PCI - Express 3.0 card game?

    Hello

    I have a Question. I bought a refurbished Z800.

    Can I install a new PCI-Express 3.0 graphic card Gaming in my Z800?

    Thank you very much for your answers.

    Gunnar

    Gunnar, use a PCI-Express 3.0 graphics card (Gen 3) will work in a Z800.  The Z800 x 16 slots running at speed of Gen 2 only, so the graphics card running at speed Gen 2 and not the highest speed of Gen 3.  Each PCIe Gen 3 graphic card I've ever seen happen to Gen 2 or Gen 1 speeds if they are installed in these slow speed slots.  First check the specifications of the desired graphic card, it must be said it will run to Gen 2 also.

    From a practical point of view, a x 16 PCIe Gen 2 interface provides a bandwidth transfer very high anyway, so should not be very noticeable difference between a Gen 2 and Gen 3 interface.  The biggest difference will be the capabilities of the graphics processor, which is a good reason to get a PCIe 3.0 card since they have new GPU.

  • Satellite A200 - I can boot from PCI express card?

    I have a laptop A200.

    I recently bought a PCI expresscard HD. Many people have asked this question already on many sites and regarding several different brands and models of laptops. According to anadtech and other techys the only way to do an ExpressCard hd is updated the BIOS. During the installation of Windows it says that it canoe on the device because the BIOS is not able to boot from it.

    Toshiba creates a new BIOS to allow starting the expresscard hd or not Toshiba have a laptop model that will allow already, as im thinking of buying a new laptop but only if this option is available.

    There someone using windows vista/xp knows a way round.

    Hello

    As far as I know it s not possible to boot from PCI express card on Satellite A200.
    In addition these books where you can boot from this slot are not known to me. Only the options HDD, CD/DVD, USB and network, but all that s.

    In addition, I put t know what you mean with PCI expresscard HD.
    Is what exactly?

  • W500 PCI-Express does not work after upgrade memory 4gig

    Laptop is a W500 with WinXP SP3. I have the external ViDock PCI Express video card. Absolutely, it works like a champ. I recently received an upgrade of memory 4gig for the W500. After the upgrade of the default value would be 2gig RAM for the new 4gig, the laptop does NOT start with the inserted PCI Express card. I remove the card PCI Express ViDock and it starts very well and of course, works very well. Same behavior either stand alone or in the docking station. I tried going back to the 2 Gig of RAM and the new ViDock works perfectly. Google is pretty quiet on this issue... This could be a problem with the ViDock? the W500? Windows XP? The memory? Doesn't seem wise for me a memory 'simple' update would disable a component. Thank you,-Ryan

  • Pavilion p6340f: version PCI Express Slot p6340f

    Hi all!  I'm upgrading graphic on the hp p6340f computer and need to know the version of the PCI-Express slot for the card that I get functions correctly.  Thanks for any help you can give me.

    By checking several motherboards using the Intel G43 Express chipset (same as the one in question), they are all are rated 16 PCI-E 2.0.  The standard 3.0 is more recent than the date of reference of the manufacturer of your PC.  Some PCI-E 3.0 might be OK in this motherboard but make sure that they are backward compatible.

  • Installation of a card PCI-Express for e-SATA Support Ports?

    Hello Experts,

    I would buy a card PCI-Express to Support 2 x e-SATA Port. The card can only installed in a PCI-Express Slot Interface. Windows Vista Ultimate German, 32-bit Version with SP1, real drivers and patches on my XPS PC.

    I'm not sure, that the card can be installed on my XPS 720 desktop computer.

    Currently work driving my Seagate FreeAgent Pro on the IEE1394 (e.g. Firewire) Port, but the speed is currently very poor.

    Greetings elgun23

    Hello:

    I don't think that anyone will be able to answer this question with a correct answer of 100%.

    You must look at the chipset and determine if these PCIe versions have been introduced.

    Based on the chipset (G33), I would say that your PCIe location is v1.1, because Intel had slots capable PCIe 2.0 until the X 38 chipset was introduced.

    You should find this article informative.

    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express

    You'd probably be 100% sure to install a video card PCIe 2.0 on your computer subject to power supply constraints.
