You first need to put Windows on your SSD.
- Have you set bios so that the DVD player is the boot drive?
- Have you removed the hdd?
- Have you installed the ssd?
Then put the Windows DVD into the DVD player and start the pc. Follow the instructions to put Windows onto the SSD.

Then shutdown and restart your pc and reset the boot order in bios so that the ssd is the primary boot drive. And remove the Windows DVD.

Your pc should now be OK. You can then shutdown and put the hdd back if your vivobook can have a second drive. Then check the drives in bios.
