Hello
My pc was working fine recently, the occasional freeze etc. Then today I turn it on and it tells me I don't have an OS installed.
Checked bios, and my SSD which Windows 10 is installed on, is not listed there at all.
I tried swapping out SATA cables with spares I had and the ones that were in my 2tb hdd but still no SSD.
I assuming it has failed, which is okay, it only ran my OS and nothing else important was on it.
However, I have a Windows 10 install USB that came with the PC I bought my brother. I boot off the usb and select install 64 bit mode. Black screen with white bar loads. Windows icon comes up. Swirly loading icon appears. Then BSOD. Every time. With the error. Memory_management
I can however install 32 bit and that works fine .. If I wanted to run it off of a hdd which I don't.
So it puzzles me that I lose my SSD and then not able to install 64 bit. Coincidence? Or linked?
Tomorrow I will be putting my SSD in my brothers pc to see if it picks it up. I will post back here with results. But that won't change the strange windows 10 install issue.
Question I suppose is, what could be causing the install issue?
I have been wanting to but an m.2 so I'm not upset about my ssd dying as I had suspected that was the cause of my freezing lately. But I am concerned about the install.
The is in advance.
