Hi!
I am building a pc with a 980ti, r5 1600, 16gb 3200, cx850m, prime b-350 plus, and an inland 240gb ssd
The ssd does not like me. And with the trouble it has caused me, the feeling is mutual.
I had had the build fully assembled with a different, 128gb ssd, and it worked great. Ran benchmarks, it was all stable, bla bla bla.
I then was going to switch it to a 240gb ssd, so, I took out the 128gb, put in the 240gb, got my windows installation media, did the setup, installed windows, and thennn nothing. It wouldn't boot from it. No matter what I did (and I tried everything, I ended up re-installing it like 8 times. The only time something different happened was when it said it was missing a file (winload.efi) so I looked up tons of possible fixes for that, and none worked.
I then redid my installation media to make sure that wasn't the problem. And yes the 240gb ssd was the only drive in the system when I installed windows.
After that not working for a long time, I decided to try to clone it. that didn't work. Something about 4096 and 512, and it has to do with the ssd structure, so it didn't work. i tried it with my main pc, and my 128gb ssd, which they were both whichever type that made it not work.
Has anyone else had this problem before? Or maybe has an idea of something else I can try?
Thank you
p.s. I reformatted the ssd every time it didn't work, so i didn't just stack windows upon itself.
