I've recently purchased an Intel 530 SSD and tried to install it on a brand new ASUS X550LC. Everything goes as like clockwork until booting from the SSD. The computer keeps crashing about 3 minutes into operation.

I've been able to install and use this same SSD on my wife's ASUS computer without any problems. Both computer and SSD have the latest firmware updates. Scouring forums has revealed this is an issue more with newer hardware. Has anyone else had this issue and resolved it? Or does anyone have any suggestions on how to proceed? I'm contacting ASUS and Intel, but community support is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
