Sounds like windows faild to install properly recreate the install usb and restart. Make sure you are using legacy mode in bios.

I don't see any Windows 10 drivers for the R610 on Samsung's support site. Last supported OS for that model was Windows 7 so that could be why your having problems.
There are no driver updates for it beyond 2009, and Windows 10 wasn't released to manufacturing until 2015.

I suggest you remove the SSD and put back the HDD which has the original Windows 7 on it.

With laptops especially, you should always check the manufacturer's website for driver availability before changing the pre-installed OS.

Did you have a problem with windows 7 that 10 would fix?

Regardless changing to a ssd will be a marvelous upgrade.
Reinstall your hdd and clone the C drive to your ssd.
