The OS is installed on the SSD and the other 2 hard drives are in a raid array. The BIOS on the mobo is the original installed (F1, I think). I haven't tried to upgrade this yet, would that make a difference?
I followed the latest instructions to install Mountain Lion from scratch from a USB drive using this guide:

Install went fine and everything seems to work upon boot, but after a few minutes, the OS crashes
.
Has anyone gotten this setup to work yet? Is a BIOS upgrade a must?
