Found out my laptop had an MSATA slot, so I thought I'd buy an Msata SSD rather than a normal SSD. Installed it, tried to install windows, it said it wasn't a bootable device. Removed the HDD that was originally installed. Windows 7 was then able to install on the msata ssd.
restarted the PC, now I can't boot into the Msata device and there are no boot options or storage options to change in the bios. The bios also freezes CONSTANTLY and only stops breifly if I unplug the laptop, hold the power button and turn it back on.
How can I use this msata ssd for the OS and have it working? Close to smashing the laptop and buying a new one. Complete joke how you need to do so much to install this type of storage.
