I have been using a SSD drive for about 4 months now.  Great 
performance!  I had a bios glitch that messed up the controller settings 
which made the computer not boot.  I have no clue how it happened and it 
only happened once.  Similar to your experience.

I still don't know what happened, but I just reinstalled Windows7 and everything was back to normal. I've been using PCs since 1989 and never had anything like that happen.
