Currently I am booting off of my SSD. I have no problems doing this. However. When I connect my Hard drive, the windows loading page is shown and stays there permanently.
I have gone into the bios and made sure that the SSD is the primary boot drive. I have even gone into the bios and removed the HD from the boot selection.
When I remove the HD, the computer boots normally again with just the SSD.
I want to use my SSD for the OS and main programs and the HD for storage of media.
Any help or thoughts would be GREATLY appreciated!!!
