Just bought a new drive to replace my failing old 9years old HDD. Formatted it correctly, transferred all the files from the dying drive to the new drive.. and rebooted. After rebooting, received "Error ending End of Post message to ME: HECI Disabled, Proceeding to Boot!". It froze entirely here, forcing me to reboot yet again, and then boom.. black screen, rebooted again... black screen... and then "System files are corrupted, entering recovery environment", froze yet again.. and then had to reboot, booted perfectly into Windows this time. So fucking confused.

 

Appears this has been posted twice lol, ignore the other thread.

Your old hdd is having issues and not booting right. Replace it with a ssd. Thats happens with a bad hdd.

Like i said in the post, that is the drive i just swapped. Windows is already on an SSD, the HDD contained games and programs and that's it, so i don't see why Windows is flipping the fuck out lmao

There was probably something malicious on the old drive that windows was trying to fix before letting you use the new one. Leave it for a bit and see what happens.

Is the bootloader on the hdd?  Bad hdds can still screw things up as the system will wait for io.

 

Could also just be a bug. If it boots id ignore it.

i don't even know what the issue is myself to be quite honest. It's booted perfectly fine and is working now. I'm guessing windows was just tripping out or something lol, gonna run a sfc /scannow just to check for anything immediately corrupted, this has me completely lost lol

The bootloader is on the SSD. The old/dying HDD was formatted and nuked after transferring all the files from it to the new one. I'm going with bug, since it's booted perfectly fine, weird though that it locked up multiple times trying to boot before that lol.
