rampage III black edition random crashing

hi guys,

I got a rampage III black edition running a i7 3.2ghz non overclocked, 6gig of ram corsair dominator, windows 7 ultimate 64bit
and a corsair h55 water-cooler, 120gig crucial m500 ssd drive and a ata drive for programs and things.

whole system is non overclocked.

basicly in a nutshell i have the os on the ssd and a thew bobs and other storage on the other, now and again it will randomly hang up when doing a task or playing a game, then i will reset the system and then it will work fine i have cleared the cmos and that seems to have sorted it for now. (i think)

now the bios is up to date (for what i know unless they have released a new version) system updates are all in check as well.
any one else had this issue with ssd's ? or this in general ?

many thanks.

How long have you had your OS on that SSD and how much free space is there on the SSD?

forgot psu 😛
and vga.
is it a freeze or black screen??
at times when playing i can get total freeze/ lockups and have to hardreboot to get it working again.
it "can" be drivers from gpu or DX but not shure ( just guessing here ).

turned out to be a stick or ram and the ssd quite odd.
