If you unplug the SSD does the system boot up properly?

Posted

So, after installing the SSD, and seeing that everything was running fine, i installed all the cables correctly, screwed in the side panel, boot up the system and see that it starts to bootloop. After I reseated ram and ran only 1 dimm, I see thatit stopped bootlooping but i cannot get it to POST.

Can someone help? I have been troubleshooting for 6 hours and cannot find a solution... Please help meee!!

No, not recently.

It is a hyperX Savage 240GB SSD, bought with the upgrade bundle.

Try it, if you get it to boot update your BIOS and I think that the issue will be fixed.

BTW, make sure that your SSD is Number 1 in  the boot order....

Problem is resolved, thanks for the help! I was in a real hurry and my mind was just blacked out. Actually typing this reply from the PC talked about. Thanks again!
