I have the Corsair Force 3 that has the same SandForce controller. I had several of the same issues as you do. Tried everything you mentioned to no avail. What worked for me was to shut off the LPM. Here's a link to the instructions:

Then a day after I bought it, I got a 5% off coupon by email and the price decreased by $10.

Besides those unfortunate things, it's an amazing upgrade from my 15.6-inch laptop. Don't really notice the LED but there is peace of mind knowing it uses less power. I actually like the touch-sensitive interface instead of physical keys; makes the design sleek. I thought 1080p vids looked good on a laptop but damn, they are stunning with a monitor that can actually show every pixel. The size is also perfect.

How do you like the monitor?
Well... I like it. Nice size, great colors, and I really like the white bezel! : But as you said, the power button isn't really responsive, and it's hard to plug things in the back. Also, I think it's a little too thick...

The only thing I really hate is that it's plugged on my 15,6 inch laptop and I see some king of "wind" on the screen. I guess it's my laptop's GPU that's broken because when I plugged it on my TV, I think I also saw it. I really hope the problem doesn't come from the screen itself cause I'm only gonna build my rig on November, and my warranty will be expired. And I want to avoid the Dell customer support at any price!

And you have touch sensitive buttons? Is your screen the ST2310? Cause mine has regular mechanical keys...

Thank you so much for that. I just updated my P8P67 bios to 1850beta and no freezes/BSODs so far, but I will give this a try immediately.

Oh, if you look at my sig, I have the ST2220M, not the same one you have. Though I understand your confusion because Dell likes to reuse old form-factors for monitors. Even my monitor is thick for an LED monitor, but this one doesn't have a power brick like most LED monitors so I am very happy about that. And sorry about the "wind" thing you are having problems with. I really wish I could help but I have no idea. :S

Well anyway, hope you like the pics as much as I do. Enjoy.

That's a pretty sweet college computer. Make sure you have it in a safe place.

OMG a hard drive (ssd) that freezes, drops out and causes BSOD is completely unacceptable. That's amazing...I'm incensed. They should immediately be recalled and replaced with a more reliable product. It's a good thing I never bought one because I would have been their worst nightmare. We have recourse here, and can force companies to fulfill their warranty obligations. Consumer Affairs Canada can actually fine companies if they don't. Selling an unreliable storage medium is completely unacceptable. IMHO, getting people to shut off the power saving feature on that port is not a solution but a band-aid. I may be replacing my ssd this winter and thanks to you guys discussing this I will make sure the drive I purchase has no such known issues.

@Mergatroid...I agree with you completely. SandForce is currently working on a new firmware that is supposed to fix the problem. It wasn't until Corsair released the Force 3 that problems were even publicly acknowledged. I know that Corsair is working with them in getting to the bottom of the problem. Corsair shipped them computers that were having the problems because SandForce said they couldn't duplicate it.

Hey guys, got myself a new case and powersupply. A bit overkill for the psu at the moment but gettin a new cpu an mb soon when i get more cash. Was a bit of fiddling around before i got the thicker radiator in place. Looks a lot better than my old antec p180 Still thinking of hiding the cooling with some partially painted plexi but that will be later when i get the new parts...
