Series: MSI Z68A-G45 (G3)
Model No.: MS-7750 (v2.0)
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500K @ 3.30 GHz
BIOS Version: E7750IMS V11.2 (01/11/2012)
Memory Size: 16384 MB
I purchased a Seagate Barracuda 3TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" internal hard drive, attached it to a SATA 6 GB/s port (SATA1) and booted from the already installed (SATA2) 1 TB hard disk.
The BIOS and the OS (Linux Mint 16) detected the new 3 TB hard disk and everything was working fine. So I partitioned (2 partitions), formatted (NTFS) and copied my data to it.
After a while I restarted my computer but it didn't boot. It didn't even show the splash screen of the MSI's CLICK BIOS II. It was stuck on a black screen with "A2" written on its bottom right corner.
I pressed F2 to enter the BIOS setup, but it only displayed "Entering setup . . ." and didn't move forward. The keyboard also became inactive, so I powered the PC off.
Now the same thing happens every time I turn my PC on.
However, if I detach the new 3 TB hard disk, the system boots normally.
I checked the hard disk on another PC and it's working fine.
Why is this happening?
