I have tried and tried and tried. Im hoping that there is a solution to my problem.
When I first got my PC parts my Friend built it for me. I have a hdd (1TB) and an ssd (240GB)and I didnt know anything about computers so I installed it on my hdd and after research I found it was a mistake.
This was about a year ago. And I have been using windows 10 on my hdd ever since and I have tried many times to install it on my ssd and it won’t work.
I have probably come the closest so far. I removed my hdd and with a windows install media on a usb I installed it to my ssd and it created four partitions
( and for some reason the primary partition has 299.2gb even though its a 240gb(is this normal?))
with the windows on the main one(fourth one).
When i tried booting it up it went to the installation media.
So I went to my bios and changed the TOP priority to my Kingston ssd.
This still resulted in booting the installation media. I shutdown my computer and removed the installation media.
When i turned my computer on it said that there wasn’t any proper boot device in.
I switched SATA cables to my previously used SATA cable that my hdd (which was working fine) was using and still the same problem.
Startup repair doesn't work too.
Some details about my computer My system is a UEFI SYSTEM. It is set to AHCI. And both HDD and SSD are GPT. Specs: ASROCK B250 M Pro4, Kingston 240gb ssd, barracuda 1TB.
Please feel free to give suggestions or ask for any details. I wouldn’t say I’m good with computers. Thanks a bunch in advance.
