I have been trying to get this to work for two days now!

So I got an ssd the other day and i made the mistake of trying install windows on it from my desktop.( i kinda know about computers through my HNC in software) I have never installed an ssd. now every time i tried to install it, it says it need a driver or something.



I have disconnected my old HDD that has win7 on it, but when i go to install windows on to my SSD it doesnt show up when i get to this stage:

I have also tried it on a blue port.

It shows up fine on the disk management and in my computer.


It is connected the the white port on my mobo(which is a gigabyte z77-d3h.

I have taken images of my bios so mark sure its all set up right and a short video of what happens when i click install now button: http://youtu.be/kYcTerKRlKk

I don't know what color the Intel SATA ports are on that MB but be sure that you are plugged into the first Intel port (should be something like SATA_0)

Also be sure that your SATA Mode in the BIOS is set to AHCI. Sounds like it may be in RAID and Windows Install is looking for a RAID driver.

... it was just the usb, for some reason wasnt working right in that port!

Now, i want my SSD for Windows and some programs like photoshop etc etc, Can i move the adobe folder from the old windows HDD to my SSD or will i need to completely re-install everything?

Sorry fur the late response. Tom's has stopped sending me e-mail notifications.

Unfortunately you'll need to reinstall your Adobe applications.
