Hi, so I've bought a crucial mx300 525gb ssd to replace my current boot drive adata 128gb ssd. Here is what I did:

  1. I formatted it as a normal new drive, worked perfecly
  2. I copied whole adata drive using Acronis True Image 2015
  3. I booted from the crucial drive
  4. Launching windows 10 took a bit longer, worked normally for about a minute
  5. This happened (attached a video):

I tried it many times, each time I had to boot again from the adata drive to operate the pc somehow. Do you have any ideas? Or should I just reinstall windows?

Ok, and the best way is through an iso file on a usb flash stick?

Make the flash drive with UUI. Just Google it to download it. Put in the Windows ISO and make a flash drive. Install it onto the new SSD.
