Just installed a Crucial M4. After doing it a second time was able to install all the Drivers Correctly. Started loading all my Programs. The first install started right after Macafee Install. I also noticed a problem in a driver in device manager. After not being able to install and getting BSOD. I started over. Again everything went well. The installed Macafee again and the BSOD's started again. Loaded in safe mode and uninstalled and problems are gone. Has anyone else had a problem with Anti Virus programs. Have Now install MS security Essentials and no problems yet.

But to answer your question, it should not have interfered with your SSD install. I say it is McAfee is your issue.
Good luck -
Agree with MS Security Essentials. I never install until last and I do not let updates install on auto. To avoid problems I always pick what MS installs.

i pretty much deleted mcafee right away from my laptop. i feel it really throws off my computer performance.

mcafee sucks. I had a 3 yr sub come with one of my computers (E1705) and I deleted it within 2 days. I loved the warning........ something like........
are you sure you want to delete your prepaid 3yr subscription and walk away from all the great features of security?
YES YES YES LOL. -
Get MSE or NOD32

Mcaffee is a serious piece of bloat that can easily cause issues and slows down computer performance (and it's not good as a security program either).
I recommend you remove it from the system entirely, and put MSE, Avira, or Avast as a replacement.
Your computer will be thankful to you. -
Using a M4 with MSE on my desktop and everything has been stable since i built it in august. McAfee is seriously one of the worst AVs out there.

Get Microsoft Security Essentials
