My PC has been temperamental lately

[phillpower2]

If the MB was the exact same it would be expected to be ok but if the board was a different revision number you can have problems, never an issue for me as a new MB always gets a clean install regardless.

Alright

[Maurice]

Update:
The SSD isn’t detected anymore

[phillpower2]

How has this been determined, by the computer not booting and you then checking in the BIOS and finding that the SSD is not listed in the boot order.

[Maurice]

Yup exactly, only my CD drive and 1tb hdd are showing in the bios

[phillpower2]

Try swapping the cables from the HDD over to the SSD and likewise connect the present cables connected to the SSD over to the HDD, this will rule out a bad power or data cable.

[Maurice]

Y’know? I’ll wait two more days and get a new SSD with a new sata cable and see where it goes from there

[phillpower2]

No worries on our behalf but there is just one problem with that and that is, if it is the SATA port on the MB that has the problem you will still have the same problem when you connect the new SSD to the port using the new SATA cable.

Doing the suggested test rules the SATA port + the SATA power and data cables in or out as the cause of the issue/s.

You should also make sure that any new SSD that you purchase actually ships with a SATA cable, they cost literally pennies to make but if you have purchased an OEM device, commonly known as a bare drive they do not ship with a SATA cable.

I have a few sata connections on the MB I’ll connect it to a different one
Also I been thinking of getting a Samsung 860 Evo MZ-76E500B with a new sata cable since they got nothing that has a sata with it in my price range (I live in Israel)

[phillpower2]

Check the user manual for the MB to make sure that the SATA port that you use will allow you to boot the new SSD from it, not all SATA ports on every MB allow boot devices to be connected to them, you should also make sure that you connect the drive to one of the faster SATA 6.0Gbps ports and not one of the slower 3.0 type.

Don`t forget the warning that you HDD is showing.

Good news! (So far)
My PC is up and running with a brand new SSD and sata cable and I’m currently installing Windows 10 on it

I’ma replace the 1tb HDD next month hopefully

[phillpower2]

Don`t forget, install Windows, install the chipset and SATA drivers for the MB, install the GPU drivers and only then should you check for and install any Windows 10 updates.

Sorry I got excited
I’m currently installing the drivers

[Maurice]

Alright so I installed all the drivers but the chipset drivers aren’t installing
They give me a fatal error
Those are the logs :

[phillpower2]

Few questions if I may;

Have you been able to successfully install Windows.

Did you try to install the chipset drivers first.

What chipset drivers did you try to install and where did they come from.
