hey all need some help really badly please before i rip hair out
i have a SSD crucial 120gb and a friends Toshiba Satellite C50-A-1JM that came with windows 8 pre installed with partition HDD
I did a clone on the Pre installed HDD with FarStone DriveClone took about 4hours onto the SSD the software said it was safe to put into the computer and it will Boot
Nope didn't boot i also tried to repair the SSD with Cloned Windows on it but won't repair
Also tryed using the partition on the SSD that got cloned but wont work
I put in a windows 8 Pro DVD that i downloaded and the computer will not Boot from dvd
I made a Toshiba 16gb Recovery USB Stick and laptop will not install Windows 8 to the SSD it will install to another HDD
Please Please Please Help Help me its Driving me CRAZY
I have downloaded a cracked copy of windows 8 and burning it to USB to see it will install Windows 8

I was also advised to use a program called Easus todo looks quite simple to use i ticked the box for for SSD hell it looks faster the same process said it would take 20mins if it will is another thing lol but the other program took hours
used this program and i get the same error
after a little more messing around i got this message
been through every option and get the same result
i have been on to Toshiba and they said that the laptop isnt compatible for a SSD
i tryed booting windows off a USB to install onto the SSD and it said this
so i tryed putting a normal HDD in the laptop and worked fine wanted to install windows
i contacted Microsoft and this guy said try and boot from DVD not usb as the bus controller isn't comparable with SSD
i don't have any blank DVD's so after a little Google i found this
i have just tried this
