When I start my very new computer, there is a little 92 in the bottom right hand corner. It then takes a long time to load. This is weird because I put windows on the ssd (I also have a hard drive too). Can anyone help. I have a Kingston SSDNow V300 Series 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive

Hey there, PCBuilder222.

It does sound weird. Make sure that all the components have been properly connected. Try the SSD without the HDD connected to the computer. You can also try it with a different port. If you got the same results, download an SSD diagnostics program and test the drive for errors, to see if anything comes up. Also, check if there's an available firmware update for the SSD and if you find one - install it to see if that fixes things up.

Hope that helps. Please let me know how everything goes.
