Ok I am so sick of looking for AlienRespawn V2.0. Help me Please!!! - Page 2

I am still not sure it supports trim, but sure it does support garbage collection

I think there is still a updated formware to be released to suuport ATA TRIM commands

Well the garbage collection just require idle time. You don't actually have to do anything so that is pretty much the same thing.

Newegg now has the Intel G2 OEM on sale. I would bet anything that one has the older firmware also.

I do not think any SSD drives have TRIM yet, they were all waiting for Win 7 to be released so they could finish the development of the firmware

The Indilinx based SSDs have the trim firmware.

I have a AW m17

& i upgrade my Hard drive & to Windows 7

can we make a respwan Dvd ?
or is better to make a complete Image back up of the Laptop
is it reliable ? or better to buy a Image backup software ?

or is there another or better way ?

If you just want to "image" a drive - which I do often since hard drives are cheap nowadays - Easus Backup or HD clone are free tools that do a perfect job.

cheers ...

I had Vista & did a Image Backup of it
& then Installed Win 7 & did a Full Image backup of it too

now i few Issues with Win7 & want to restore Vista Image back up & then Fresh Install Win 7 again

When i try to do restore back up, the last backup i have is of Win 7 & when I try to choose from option
But am not able to see the Vista backup option
Just the Win 7

Is there a way i can do that ?
or cos i installed Win 7 it wont let me go back to Vista

PLEASE HELP ANYONE

I am not sure if you can restore a Vista backup image within Windows 7. That was why I always "clone" the drive when moving one OS to another.

Do you have the possibility to restore the comp at BIOS start up, and not having to go through Windows, reading the recovery direct from the hidden partition?

cheers ...

Thanks for trying
to help

I deleted my AlienRespawn partition last night. Why would anyone want to use that utility anyway?

Quick way to go back to factory settings. Useful if your selling the machine.

I blew away the respawn partition also and when the system booted I still selected F10 for respawn. I received a message saying the respawn partition has been removed and do I want to continue. I said yes anyway and respawn still worked..go figure.

yes, now it does. i went to the corsair support forum and samsung released a new firmware version which i upgraded to which supports TRIM.. version: VBM19C1Q. now i'm stoked!!!
