I'm not very computer say so I apologize if this sounds very dumbed down or not enough info. I have an alienate alpha i3 that has an extremely slow hard drive so I got a Kingston a400 sad. I went through the alienware respawn process to back up all the alienware data and everything went as normal when I put the ssd in. While it was restoring I got an error 0xc0000225 which looks like it has to do with windows 10. I figure it has to be a problem with the data getting off the last harddrive so id like to retry but now the ssd wont boot any screen at all. Is it possible to format it and try again? Idk where to start with trying to fix it.

If you have any questions that could help I'll be happy to answer them right away.

Thanks

As I understood your post you tried to use the AlienRespawn to put your OS to the SSD which I think is a very bad idea. You should plug in both your old hard drive and the new SSD on your computer and use a specific software to "migrate" your OS from your old hard drive to the new SSD instead. I am pretty sure most SSD vendors have a migrating software. You should use that.
