I just installed a new hard drive in my computer instead of the old one. I simply took out the old drive and put the new one in its place.
I installed Windows on the new drive, and it's working. However, whenever I boot my computer, it asks me to choose between two versions of Windows. If I choose the first one, it starts the version I just installed on my new drive. If I choose the second one, it shows a "Windows Boot Manager" screen, stating that the computer couldn't start because of a recent change.
I take it that the second one is some kind of residue from my old Windows installation, but I can't figure out how there could be any residue at all, since I physically removed the hard drive from my computer containing the old Windows installation.
I have another hard drive in my computer, that I keep for file storage. Could the residue be on that? Or is there some kind of mini storage on the motherboard, or what?
And how can I remove the residue?
Thanks!
