Hello,
I recently got a new ssd since my old HDD died.
I am looking to do a fresh install of my OS (to my SDD) and start from scratch.
The problem is that whenever I go to install my OS (windows 7) it says: "Windows cannot be installed onto this Disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in the Computer's BIOS menu."
So I unplugged everything that wasn't needed and changed my settings to AHCI mode and installed the drivers and it still doesn't want to install.
I verified that the SSD works, I booted up windows in my old HDD and it recognized the SSD just fine.
I don't know what to do now as this is the first time I have ever dealt with a SSD before.
There may be a long gap in between the times I post as I might get busy soon so I apologize for that.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you!
