I have a spare HDD from a laptop lying around and want to install it in my desktop in addition to the 1 SSD I have in there already.  The problem is once I connect the drive and try to boot I boot right into blue screen.  Disconnect the HDD and it boots fine.  Don't cringe but I even tried a hot install of the drive once machine was up and running and it blue screened as soon as I connected it.  Take that HDD and plug it into USB port via an adapter and it reads as a perfectly fine NTFS formatted blank drive.  I already tried a different SATA jack on my MOBO.  I am out of ideas but I suspect some of you more knowledgeable people may lead me into settings in the bios but its beyond my skill to mess around in there too much without a good guide.  Any help would be appreciated.......
