Can't install Windows 7 after upgrading SSD
Hi,
I am using Dell Inspiron N4030, and after upgrade to SSD it can't install windows 7. Bios can detected.
After windows 7 setup running it hang on windows loading logo. I was upgrade the Bios to ver. A07, but the problem still the same.
Any setting I need to setup?

Hi Maxima003,
Do you have the SATA controller set to AHCI in the BIOS? Does Windows see that there is a hard drive to install Windows to?

What SSD model? Note new HDD/SSDs are thinner than old ones did you apply the spacer so it seats okay?
