Hi guys

Recently I bought a used pc 

The specs are:

i5 4590

b85 g41 PC Mate 

Gtx 1050ti

20gb ram (3x4 plus 1x8)

1tb hdd

Seasonic s12II 520w PSU

And I added an ssd to spedd it up a little. I wanted to install windows on it so I tried to clone the hdd windows to the ssd, it failed in many programs because of the sector size difference in hdd and ssd. But then tried with Casper and it worked. Selected it in bios to boot from it and got nothing. Tried doing this with the ssd in mbr and gpt with Uefi and Uefi + Legacy modes. Couldn't do it. So then I tried a clean install with a USB Flash drive. Got to the part where you chose disk and it couldn't install on the ssd because something along the lines of my hardware may not boot or something. Again tried formatting ssd. Putting it in gpt and mbr, different bios modes and nothing. Also I made sure the data controller was in ahci because I saw it as a troubleshooting method. Couldn't seem to install even after that. Then I tried on another day, it supposedly worked but when I tried booting it just gave me a blue recuperation screen, tried again and again and nothing. My hdd still boots fine and I can use the pc and even game, but things are too slow. I can't understand why doesn't any of this work. May you help me?
