Ssd freeze pc

[Barbona]

Yesterday i was using my pc normally and it suddenly freeze while watching a youtube video and it cause a hard restart.

Now windows start up normally but it instantly freeze in windows desktop.

Tried run windows installer to do a fresh install but it freezes.

Also tried connect the ssd  with a sata - usb to my notebook and format it from there (both with cmd and with specialized software, but it ends in the same)

The ssd is a Ocz Vertex4 64gb.

It sounds like you have a dead SSD. I've had 2 of OCZ's Vertex drives die on me. The controllers on them is usually what goes, and when that happens they might start in a read only mode but most likely they won't start at all.

 

When you power on the drives there should be a LED light on the back of the drive by the power and sata connectors. When the controllers go bad the LED never turns green, it either turns orange or red.

First time i see that led. Somehow its still green...

That LED is unique to OCZ drives I believe. That's a new one though, that the LED is still green but the drive isn't accessible. You could try plugging it in via USB to SATA on another computer and running the trial of HDTune Pro to check the health tab. If the USB adapter passes the SMART info though it might tell you something about the flash.

 

Another thing you could try is using OCZ's SSD Toolbox to force a firmware update and drive wipe to try and "reset" the controller, though you might need to be directly connected via SATA for that.

The health tab doesnt show nothing  (http://postimg.org/image/xe52i7pjn/)

 

ocz toolbox says "no supported drives found" 

 

The ssd is in my other desktop connected direct to sata

I think the drive also needs to be running in AHCI mode in the BIOS for it to be found by OCZ Toolbox, but in all likelihood the drive has simply pooped the bed and nothing is going to be able to get it to work.
