Ultra x3 1000W
I have tryed the following.
1) Reinstalled Drivers for. AMD, Creative Labs, Sata III contoler,
2) Updated Firmware for the SSD
3) Removed one of the ea 6950 / 6970 and ran them solo ( no Xfire )
4) Removed my Sata III Controler Card and ran the SSD off the on board Sata 2
5) Removed the CL Sb X-if & used onboard sound
6) Unoverclocked EVERYthing.
7) Went into Bios Turned Off onboard Sata controler & use only the PCI-E one.
8) Changed out all the Sata cables.
9) Changed the Crossfire cable , also changed the order of the 69XX-s
10) uninstalled Alot of unused software (nothing that is needed) ...
Known Facts.
It is not due too overheating (have a huge amount of airflow and CPU/Gpus top off at 60c)
After uninstalling Drivers, I use driver sweep to remove the leftovers.

I have seen this also when I got my SSD drive. What finaly cured it was to reinstall windows 7, and then install the drive vendor SSD drivers first before installing any other drivers or updates, then install the other manufacture drivers (video/netowrking)
and then perform a windows update on the machine. You might want to hunt down the drivers first and put them on a USB thumb drive for easy installation. At work with SSD's we saw this a bunch, it was the SSD drivers that seem to be the root of
the issue (several desktop guys pullingout hair and screaming for a couple weeks on this)
Good luck!:P Advice offered, If you need more help it is advised to seek the council and advice of paid professionals. The answer is always 42, or reboot.
