Hello,
I've been trying to get my new ssd going but unfortunately I'm stuck at one point so I'll tell the whole story from the beginning.
I've installed the ssd (256gb) into my pc, connected the cables and started the samsung magician software told me that everything is connected properly so I started the migration using samsung data migration. It took a couple minutes but went well according to the info that samsung software showed me. I had a C partition (195gb) with Windows (ver 7) and all other software. There were around 40gb left. After the migration the size of the C partition went down to about 35gb. There were also two new partitions. One 100mb with some boot folder and the other was 238gb with about 85gb used. After doing this I've restarted my computer and went into BIOS to change from IDE to AHCI. I've also changed the boot disk priority to get ssd into the first position. After accepting the changes and restarting I got a message bootmgr is missing. So I've restarted again, change disk priority back to the working settings and opened the disk management option in windows. I've noticed that the previous hidden 100mb was set to active so I did the same to the 100mb partition on the new ssd. Then again reboot, disk priority to ssd as first, accept, reboot and a new error saying that I should put in a cd with windows to repair etc. This is the moment when I got stuck and would appreciate any help or tips about what to do
Thank you in advance
Mike
