Hey everyone,
I have been issued a Dell Latitude e7440 from work. The laptop has 2 bays - 1 standard hdd bay, and an mSata bay. The computer has an mSata drive in the SATA HDD bay with an adapter.
I want to move the mSATA drive to the mSATA bay and install a SATA drive in the SATA bay.
When I move the mSATA drive to the other port, the machine boots, starts to load windows 7, but hangs on start up. It never asks me to login, it simply hangs at a blank screen with a moveable cursor. Ctrl+Alt+Delete does nothing.
If I boot in Safe Mode I get the windows login prompt, but I can't login, my password will not work.
If I put the drive back on the original SATA port, everything works just fine.
The drive is encrypted, I am not sure if that may be part of the issue.
Any ideas??
Thanks
