You need to probably change the SATA slot then go into BIOS and set that HDD to boot from

If it doesn't boot, you need to go into your BIOS and change the boot to look for the new SATA port

Move the SATA connections to how you want them.
Turn on the computer.
Immediately Press DEL when you see your BIOS splash screen (looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/mOwMCJP.jpg)

Go to the BIOS Features tab at the top.
Chose your Boot Option #1 - Set this to the drive with Windows installed, I'm guessing its the 250GB SSD?
Hit Save & Exit at the top right.

Your PC should restart and Windows should load up.

No, even the BIOS screen doesn't show up, the screen is blank until I put the connections in right order. Only then bios starts

What is your motherboard model and you are using a HDD?
