    Question Need to erase absolutely everything off my hard drive

    So I used this program called "macrium reflect" to clone my OS from the HDD to my SSD and it worked perfectly fine up until a certain point, at which i managed to fix it through trial and error but that's besides the point. I got the SSD today, t he 17th, and it works fine. I partitioned it...

    Question tried cloning OS from HDD to nvme SSD but i am entirely lost now

    Question tried cloning OS from HDD to nvme SSD but i am entirely lost now

    Yes, that was the first thing i did and it just told me that it needed me to insert bootable media. Did I miss something and not format my SSD before cloning to it or something?

MY specs are an i5-6500, gtx 970, 16 gbs of ddr4 ram, and rainbow runs off of a 256gb 960 evo...
