No Fault Found on RMA SSD

Intel G2. OC are sending it back saying 'there is no fault with it'. It crashes to a black screen during Win7 installation, the reserved partition has dissapeared, sometimes the HDD is not seen at all on bootup.

The Win 7 installation I have on my WD HD while I await the return my SSD is faultless. I don't know what to do now. £200 is too much just to write off. any suggestions?

I don't really know enough about SSD's to help but could it just be a BIOS update required/configuration/driver type of problem?

you could try it on another pc or laptop maybe

Well, it worked fine with Win 7 RC7100. It only borked on retail Win 7. I'll test on both, and XP. It could be drivers in the retail version I suppose. I'll test 32 and 64 bit retail.

Connect it to Sata port 1.
