i unpluged the power from the old hdd, do i have to unplug the sata cablefrom the mobo too?

i pluged in a sata extra slut the ssd and put power in it.
i plugged keyboard et mouse .

What is installed on your system now?
If you're planning on using the Win t U license you have to activate the new Win 10 install, you install Win 10 Pro.

You're seeing that 'error', because you have nothing to boot from. Did you make a USB to install with?

I just unplugged hdd (win10) i wont use this hdd.
waht is win t ?

i have a physical box win7 with code

i did made a usb it is not plugged only thing plugged is the ssd blank new.

Should n t i be able to acces bio?

in your guide you say to

1
ou disable both Secure Boot and Fast Boot in the BIOS/UEFI settings a
2Before you begin the installation process, it might also be a good idea to ensure that your BIOS is set to UEFI or compatibility mode.

3 you proceed with the installation, it may be necessary to enter the bios and set your machine boot order to USB or DVD drive as the first bootable option it will look for, depending on what form of installation media you created in the previous s

these 3 things seem to be asked to do before plugging the usb with win 10 on it dont they?

i dont understant this If you're planning on using the Win t U license you have to activate the new Win 10 install, you install Win 10 Pro.

could you rephrase in other words?tx

for 123, i cannot access the bio by pressing f1 nor del.

There is no "Windows 10 Ultimate"

A "Win 7 Ultimate" license will transfer into a Windows 10 Pro.

ideo raid or ahci?
master boot record security ? disable or enable

for no 2 the only place it is written uefi is
uefi boot sources usb floppycd
usb hard drive
is this ok or when you talk about uefi there is something else to verify? i did not see the word compatibility anywhere.

tx
