Hi, need some help with my HP Pavilion gaming laptop.
so i am building a desktop and had a spare SSD lying around, used the laptop to format the SSD with an enclosure, shut down the laptop and now when i boot, there is windows boot manager telling me windows failed to start. i put my boot usb in and tried changing the boot order and booting off of that but nothing is working. please help.
yes, im booting from OS Boot Manager. i should also mention i get a black hp screen with a loading wheel before the boot manager. i dont know much about laptops so excuse me if i make a mistake.
that should be OK, but maybe adding the old SSD which was probably itself an old system drive has tricked your BIOS into thinking there are now more than one bootable option available.
change you change the BIOS boot order to say your internal drive as the first choice.
I donβt have access to a HP unit to get into the BIOS of, so Iβm just winging it.
I know Iβve seen an option like that before.
it should be in the Boot Order/Menu section, and there is usually an option to turn on/off the OS Boot Manager and there should be a list of bootable devices for you to pick which one gets moved to the top.
feel free to show some screenshots of your BIOS pages if thatβll help.
