Just got a Crucial M4 64GB to install Windows 7 on, what to do now?

Most important thing is to make sure you have ACHI enabled in the bios.
Install the latest Intel Rapid Storage Technology drivers :

And your good to go really.
Oh and a good choice on the SSD

Id also recommend shifting C:\Users to a normal hdd. You can do it during the install somehow, I just can't remember
Mine fills up with so much junk. I was playing Dirt the other day and it automatically saved 5gb of replays to my SSD before it ran out of space
Things like that keep happening fairly often

I suppose it depends what motherboard you have.
No special installation on the Crosshair IV motherboard. I recentley installed windows x64 hp on one M4 64GB ssd. All i did was set storage in bios to 6GB/s AHCI, loaded amdahci from a usb flash drive at windows 7 setup, then proceeded to install windows, all seems ok, not bad really. Maybe i could improve ssd with some tweaks?. Might try the msahci next time i do install of windows?.
